Can you guys give me some help with my monitor? I thought the monitor was going bad, but the same symptoms appeared again when I hooked up a different monitor to my computer.

I'm getting gray horizontal lines and bands accross the screen, aligned with text and images. Is there a way to clear this up?

Thanks.

It sounds like a problem with the video card. I would start by downloading the latest drivers from the manufacturer's website. If you need more detailed information on how to do this, check out this website.

If it happens with two different monitors, I would suspect you have a bad video card. But isolate that it is not a bad cord that you used for both, or a bad connection.

Hi, Sam... sorry I took so long responding to your question! But, what the others have already said pretty much covers it, it does sound like a problem with your video card. Uninstalling and reinstalling the driver may help, or installing an updated driver. But, you may need to replace the card. I'll have Rose look up some prices on video cards for you, just in case!
