Solve : What is wrong with my monitor!!!????

Answer»

Hi, I'm having some trouble with the display on my monitor.  The screen is stretched out horizontally for some reason, and I tried adjusting the display settings but that didn't work. I know its not my computer because I switched the monitor with another one I had, and the new one worked just fine. So, either my monitor is busted or there is something I haven't tried yet. Any ideas?  :-?

Here are the specs for the monitor:

Hewlett Packard
Model No: D5259A
Product No: D5259-60050
S/N: TT95202246

yeah i tried changing the display settings but it didnt fix the problem. changing the resolution didnt seem to help either...  :-/Do you have any buttons or knobs on the monitor to fiddle with? Quote

Yeah, I tried adjusting the screen using the monitor's built in buttons but that didnt work either. I dont know why my monitor is doing this, I just turned it on one day and the screen was stretched out horizontally.Have you re-booted since this started?
Can you try the stretched monitor on a different computer? Quote
