Unhappy Fuzzy vertical lines on monitor
Hi can anyone help please. I do not know much about computers but my monitor has jumpy fuzzy lines (usually 4) that keep appearing on my monitor. It is usually OK for the first few minutes when I switch on but then these horrible lines appear. I thought it might be the monitor but bought a new one today and hooked it up and guess what - they are still here. Anyone got any ideas to help me I have a 5 year old autistic son who loves the computer and he is getting very cross that "its not working"!! Thanks

Hi and welcome to THF

is your monitor a CRT or a LCD, have you got any speakers or any other magnetic source close by?

It is an LCD screen as was the new one I tried yesterday. The main speaker was near the screen which is why I thought I had ruined it but I moved it well away before plugging in the new screen and the same problem still arose!

Thanks for trying to help me Jeff. I would have no idea how to alter the graphics card and I havn't done it knowingly!! I have quadruple checked the connections and used brand new cables that came with new monitor to set that up and checked them and still no joy.

before you started to have these problems did you add any new hardware or software?

do you have anymore problems with it ie pop ups, programme snot working properly?

what operating system are you using?
