Monitors

I turned on my monitor and the screen is noticably shorter at the top. I've messed with the monitor controls and I cannot get it to display anything above the file edit tabs. There are also light blue lines trailing down from the top of the screen.

I was wondering if this was my monitor dying or if it was the video card. Thanks all.

My Proview 17" CRT monitor emits an odor when it operates (I've had it for 2 days now). Also, the top of the CRT monitor is HOT. Is this normal or does it indicate a malfunction?

Thank you,
Stephen

NOTE: MY OTHER CRT MONITOR (FOR AROUND 5 YEARS) IS ALSO HOT ON THE TOP, BUT HAS NEVER MALFUNCTIONED (THE TEMPERATURE IS LIKE THE ONE OF MY NEW MONITOR).

Recently lines have been flickering on my screen, and i reduced my refresh rate from 75 to 60 which helped, but the lines keep coming back. My monitor might be getting worn out, but this is a real nice monitor and i was wondering if there's a way i could fix it? Thanks

I just received a 22" monitor and it came with a DVI-D cable and a VGA cable. Originally I plugged in just the VGA but out of curiosity I checked my graphics card and it supports a DVI-D connection.
So, I unplugged the VGA and plugged in the DVI-D cable.
I'm not sure if there is supposed to be a difference visually.
I also don't know if you are supposed to have both plugged in together or just the DVI-D by itself.

Thanks in advance,

Sean

Hey I believe my LCD monitor's backlight burnt out. This monitor also comes with a TV tuner built-in. However, when using the TV, the screen is bright, but when I use it for computing, it is very dim. I'm assuming the backlight burnt out and I need a replacement? And if so, how much would labor and parts cost?

I just got my brand new macbook today through UPS, from American Musical. It works great. The only problem I have with it is that in the upper left corner, there's a small spot (about the size of a nickle or so) that, when the screen or laptop is moved, it ripples like water (seeing that the screen is liquid). It doesn't distort the color, and doesn't seem to be causing any major problems. It's just really annoying. Does anyone have any advice as to what this is/what to do? Thanks for your help!

I have just purchased a laptop computer and I was expecting it, since it was new, to come with a glossy screen. It came with a non-glossy screen instead. It is the Tecra A8- EZ8512. It has a WXGA TFT-active matrix display. Is this good or not? Which type of screen is better, the glossy one or the dull one?
