FallowEarth Posted April 7, 2006 CID Share Posted April 7, 2006 Check the connections? Tried connecting the monitor to another tower? What have you done? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swimmer Posted April 7, 2006 CID Share Posted April 7, 2006 might want to try and reinstall the video drivers.. is this an LCD or CRT? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j3grizz Posted April 7, 2006 CID Share Posted April 7, 2006 I had one that gave me the same problem. It was a bad screen from the factory. If you do the checks that FallowEarth suggested and it still gives you problems send it back if it is under warranty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wyantm06 Posted April 7, 2006 Author CID Share Posted April 7, 2006 I hear people talking about dead pixels. What are those? How can you tell if you have them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richcornucopia Posted April 7, 2006 CID Share Posted April 7, 2006 The screen is made up of tons of pixels. When one of these pixels dies it stops doing what it should so part of your screen where the dead pixel is might not work, be discolored, or just act strange. Sounds to me like it might be something other than dead pixels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swimmer Posted April 7, 2006 CID Share Posted April 7, 2006 yeah.. if it doesnt go away call support.. Also make sure that both ends of the connection are tight.. i know on dell LCD there is one under the monitor and one into the computer. I am not sure about how HP/Compaq's are set up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
