Is My Monitor On The Verge Of Death?

Well about 2 months ago, my monitor on the left side of the screen, the image side started to kinda pulsate to where the side of the image starts to move rapidly. It went on for about 2 weeks, and then all of a sudden it stopped. Then it came back about a week ago. Ive tried degaussing and such, and nothing seems to be curing it. Does anyone know whats actually goin on, and if its fixable? or on the verge of death?"

Hmmmm it sounds suspect I`m not a techie
but I`ld say start looking to buy a new one
I had some similar problems with my 20' inch
monitor a couple of months ago and one day it
just went black I unplugged it from my system
and plugged an old 15' inch because I was actualy
hoping it was some kind of problem whit my
graphics card as it was cheaper then my monitor
but unfortunately it wasn`t. A few days later I
tried it again and this time it didn`t pulse and
stayed on but it was blur I mean so BLURRED that
it`s impossible to work on.
But it is fixeable tho the thing is you`ll have to
find some electro technician who could fix it for
ya.

Hi overdrive2023x,
From what you describe..it sounds like your monitor is going bad. You can troubleshoot it using the charts at my website in the "Beginners" section.
Can't say if its fixable.. but you could save your self a bunch of $$ by taking it directly to a TV repair service. Most Computer shops don't do CRT monitor repair these days & ship them out to TV repair shops instead.
Hope this helps

You have your monitor on a surge protector?

Someone told me once when a monitor starts acting wonky, that it might be the electrical outlet that it is plugged into. Have you tried putting the monitor on another outlet?

I sure hope your monitor isn't dying. No one needs the expense of a new monitor.

  4. VGA Mode Not Supported Message On Monitor
    (12)
    Hi, I keep getting this VGA Mode Not Supported message on the LCD monitor whenever it tries to go
    into Windows. I have read up on this online and it seems to be a problem with the refresh rate. The
    problem is that I can't boot into Safe Mode to change the refresh rate to a lower setting
    because it either freezes or also shows that VGA Mode message again. This is a Compaq that I'm
    fixing for someone and they just have the 5 recovery discs that came with it. I tried putting the
    first one in and selected to do the format and recover option. It goes through the reco....
  5. LCD Monitor: VGA Or DVI ?
    (6)
    Hi ! I just buyed a new LCD monitor to replace my old CRT monitor. The new monitor have two
    conection options: VGA and DVI. Now I have it connected to VGA, because my graphic card do not have
    the DVI conection. I don't know if image quality will change between VGA and DVI. If I buy a
    new graphics card with DVI output I will see any quality improvement? The graphics card I have now
    is a nVidia 5200 so in fact I am not needing more graphics performance and if I buy a new one will
    be only for the DVI output feature. Do you spend the money for DVI ? /unsure.gif" s....
  6. VGA Monitor Cable Problems
    (13)
    My cousin's computer seems to have a bad VGA monitor cable. The problem is that when I turn it
    on, it seems to be ok, it says auto-configure....then it goes blank (orange light on monitor power
    button). I looked at the VGA connector pins and see that pins 4 and 11 are missing. Just to be
    curious, I looked at the end connected to the LCD and it's also missing pins 4 and 11. Is this a
    coincidence? From what I found, these are what it corresponds to: 4 ID2 Monitor ID Bit 2 11
    ID0 Monitor ID Bit 0 Is this responsible for the shot display and then blank screen? ....
  7. Help Needed: Monitor Out Of Timing
    Out of Timing error with certain apps (6)
    I've decided to convert to an LCD monitor over the CRT, which I believe to be infinitely better.
    Anyway there are certain applications that, when I start up, the monitor goes black and a message
    says: Out of Timing H: 43 Hz V 27kHz. Or something like that. Any help? Drivers are up to date, and
    I think it's not influenced by resolution. I'd like to get this to work because it was
    rather large investment. Thanks.....
