Fixing Monitor Color Streaking

  • 0

How best to describe my problem? Suppose you have a flat board and on this board you have some small icons or graphics in color but made of a fine powder instead of ink and there was a wind blowing across the board from left to right causing some of the powder to streak across the surface, that would look like my computer looks like.
I have been all over the net looking for an answer and I see things like VGA OR DVI and cords being different. Settings for dual monitors, 256 colors,auto adjust feature, plug and play, contrast, backlight, RGB versus ?, resolution of 50 or 60 or 73 Mzh or other things I just do not remember.
If you have a problem with your motorcycle or other mechanical problem, bring it to me and I CAN FIX IT! But, this thing I know nothing about, This is a Dell 20″ flat screen monitor and has been used for less that twenty hours. My grandson used it one day and this problem became a part of my life. I need help. Thanks

  1. Is the LCD surface clean?
    Get another LCD or CRT monitor attached to your system to test the video quality on that monitor – then compare it to your Dell LCD.

    If it’s new, take it back. Make sure you scream at the Dell ppl too, they like that.
