Do you have anything close by that might contain a magnet, such as headphones? This used to harm the older monitors. I am not sure about the new ones.

Nothing magnetic that I know of, only our printer. It is within a few feet of our refrigerator, that wouldn't cause a problem would it? (Please tell me no, I just did a $20,000 kitchen remodeling project, with a built in computer desk)

BTW, when I came back to the computer just now, the lines have changed from black to multi-color (green and red predominately)

CRTs use a magnetic field to sweep the electron beam.

LC D's use digital switching. No magnets.
