Solve : Line going down computer screen and weird sound from speakers? |
|
Answer» The line just starting going down my screen ( top to bottom) 2 days ago. It has happened before a few months ago but went away after a few days. I tried switching MONITORS last night but the line was still there, so it's not the monitor. I also have this weird annoying buzz coming from my speakers since this has started. I'm starting to freak out because I have INTERNET classes to do and REALLY need my computer. The first thing i would check is that the speaker and monitor connections have not come loose. i just tried that both ways and the line is still there and the buzzing is still there when the monitor is off I forgot to say switch the speakers/monitor off at the wall sockets not just at the on/off button. If one of them is faulty it could still cause interfence if only off at the front buttons. If this doesn't help then next check the power leads to everything including the computer are in firmly and all the sockets are in the wall points fimly aswell. A partially unplugged power cable can often cause interference. Move any other electrical euipment away from the area aswell - especially mobile phones and see if this is causing the problem. The next step is then to look to see if it is either your graphic card or your sound card causing the problem but before someone takes you there let's eliminate the simpler fixes above. Check and let us know. Quote from: mektek on August 29, 2007, 05:00:16 PM I forgot to say switch the speakers/monitor off at the wall sockets not just at the on/off button.

I just did that all! and the line's still there.... now i'm getting scared. this might be a pricey fix OK - Next step. You need a friend whose computer you can connect you speakers and monitor to. This will see if your problem is with the monitor and speakers if they play up on their computer or if the problem lies with you computer..Quote from: makers on August 29, 2007, 03:48:46 PM The line just starting going down my screen (top to bottom) 2 days ago.

I doubt its your speakers causing the problem there probably just faulty. As for the Monitor I think you call this dead pixels, try rubbing the damaged area very gently to see if it goes away, the same thing happened to me a few months ago and I ended up dropping my screen on the ground but it FIXED the problem I am not saying you should do this but just letting you know, and I doubt it will deteriorate any further!!If I were you, I would disregard the above post... I agree with mektek that this sounds like an interference issue. Are you near any sort of heater, water heater, broiler, RADIATOR, or anything like that? Have you tried moving your computer to a completely different part of the room with a different outlet? You might also want to try physically moving the speakers away from your computer desk area. Although a bit of a longshot, it's possible that they're not properly shielded. Are these speakers designed specifically for a computer? |
