have you tried to DEGASS your monitor?
theres a button on monitors (not sure on new ones) when you press it makes a clunking sound the screen will wobble and re sets its self my old one i had to do for a while till i gave up and bought a new one.
is it a crt monitor or a lcd one
if a crt sounds like tube is on way out
on a lcd havn't got a clue
You may need to update/reinstall your can be done through Control Panel>Display>Settings>Advanced>Monitor Properties.
If you don't have the disk or cannot find the driver on your hard disk you may be able to download from makers website.
If you have a lappy or 2nd pc, plug it into that to see if the problem goes away. TBH it sounds like there may be a sync problem on the screen matrix causing a secondary shifted display, as it's under warranty get it replaced or looked at by them if it's not too inconveinient for you, or i could always pop over and give your hardware and software a thourough inspection :rascal:
LMAO UK-wineman - you cannot degauss a LCD since it doesn't have a shadow mask. I thought you considered yourself to be an expert!
Bi-welsh-minx why on earth did you say you had degaussed it when this operation is impossible on your monitor?
My advise to BWM is find a geek forum that specialises in PC matters. Out there in Internet land there are hundreds of geeks around the globe who don't go out, seldom wash, but live for technical subjects such as BWM's who would love to offer advice that might be useful to her.
sounds very similar to a problem i had with one of mine. i did manage to get an answer thogh, what was it now? oh yes i rember, apparently it's a technical term they used, 'it's fu**ed, return it' but as it wasnt covered cos of age it mysteriously got damaged by spilt tea & was an insurance job. probably not much help but at least it's a solution
Try adjusting the brightness and contrast down a bit. If the brightness is too high the thing is all blurred and washed-out....I have several tft-lcd monitors and the Iquon is easily the worst.
hibi welsh
seen u wrote the monitors less than 3 months old.
u can go back to the shop u got it and you dont need to use your garuntee as it is cover under the sale of goods act1994 if the equitment is less than six months old u are entitled to a new one not a repair as the garuntee allow the goods to last the min of a year.
also every peice of electrical equitment is covered under this act for 5 years in scotland. 6 years in england so payin for an extended garuntee isnt worth the paper its printed on your local trading standards office will advise u on this and how to get it changed

Subject: Sale of Goods Act, Faulty Goods.
Relevant or Related Legislation: Sale of Goods Act 1979. Supply of Goods and Services Act 1982. Sale and Supply of Goods Act 1994. The Sale and Supply of Goods to Consumers Regulations 2002.
Key Facts:
• Wherever goods are bought they must "conform to contract". This means they must be as described, fit for purpose and of satisfactory quality (i.e. not inherently faulty at the time of sale).
• Goods are of satisfactory quality if they reach the standard that a reasonable person would regard as satisfactory, taking into account the price and any description.
• Aspects of quality include fitness for purpose, freedom from minor defects, appearance and finish, durability and safety.
• It is the seller, not the manufacturer, who is responsible if goods do not conform to contract.
• If goods do not conform to contract at the time of sale, purchasers can request their money back "within a reasonable time". (This is not defined and will depend on circumstances)
• For up to six years after purchase (five years from discovery in Scotland) purchasers can demand damages (which a court would equate to the cost of a repair or replacement).
• A purchaser who is a consumer, i.e. is not buying in the course of a business, can alternatively request a repair or replacement.
• If repair and replacement are not possible or too costly, then the consumer can seek a partial refund, if they have had some benefit from the good, or a full refund if the fault/s have meant they have enjoyed no benefit
• In general, the onus is on all purchasers to prove the goods did not conform to contract (e.g. was inherently faulty) and should have reasonably lasted until this point in time (i.e. perishable goods do not last for six years).
• If a consumer chooses to request a repair or replacement, then for the first six months after purchase it will be for the retailer to prove the goods did conform to contract (e.g. were not inherently faulty)
