Solve : Need Help Please :) (Computer Screen being sensentive)?

Answer»

Hi there

I was just wondering when ever I log ONTO the net and STAY on for a SHORT amount of time my screen goes wider. I have to bang on my monitor to make the size go back to normal. Is there anyway to fix this?

I had to reprgram my computer and it never did this before but now it does..

Any help would be great!

Thanks!Sounds like you will soon need a NEW monitor.
Does this happen with another monitor?
Or on another PC, with that monitor?
Some more details would be nice, for example make/model of PC and monitor, what happened before this started, how old the PC and monitor are, etc.
It does sound like a failing monitor to me too, but more details would help narrow it down.Quote from: Calum on April 23, 2007, 01:11:29 PM

This is what convinced me...

Could be a dodgy connection too.

Good point, Calum. Wishywashy, you should wiggle the monitor cable to SEE if the problem comes and goes. If the cable has a plug at the monitor end, is it tight in its socket?

If this an LCD, I'd try reseating the cable. They don't like not being totally secure. But like everyone's saying, your monitor may be going out.Banging on it is ALWAYS a good approach. The more force the better.Quote from: GX1_Man on April 23, 2007, 05:45:33 PM

Reprogramming a computer is so 80's.
