crt or lcd?

10/24/2008 10:29:08 PM

Yeah what are you talking about anyway. Is the monitor physically shaking due to having a cheap ass LCD stand/monitor stand or is what is showing on the display corrupted or waving side to side. LCD/CRT is def important to know if it's dealing with picture problems.

Is it close to a TV or microwave or other giant piece of electronics. My old roommate's CRT display would start distorting and stretching sideways whenever he used the microwave right beside it.

crt

the screen, not the whole damn monitor lol thats why i said screen

theres a tv nearby but its not on

no microwaves

you are tripping on acid

just give it a little while

try degaussing

click the menu button on your monitor then choose the degauss option

maybe you're magnetized

did you and mos def try to break into a power substation by any chance?

10/25/2008 11:26:22 PM

It's at your normal resolution? Did you check the refresh rate? I'm not up to date on trouble-shooting crts but check the refresh rate, and crt wobbling is usually due to a faulty internal power problem.

it's broken man.

10/26/2008 1:49:30 AM

If it's actually rotating left or right, the monitor itself is probably broken. it's likely something simple like a failing capacitor, but that's not my area of expertise..

Make sure no magnets are around the monitor though, magnets can throw off the monitor's calibration for the earth's magnetic field for some monitors.
