Is My Monitor Dying?

Big Kev · 19 Feb 2006 at 20:15

After having my pc and monitor on continously for well over a year, I turned it off on Friday morning.

When I got home, the monitor wouldn't come on, so I got a new cable and tried again, to no avail.

I eventually got the monitor to come on, if the pc wasn't on. All of a sudden tonight, it eventually powered up and I was happy again, until I noticed there are five or six vertical ghosting lines on the screen.

Is my Iiyama VM Pro 450 on it's way out, or is there something I can do. I know it's quite old now, but still did the job perfectly.

Any chance of taking a pic of the screen with a cam?

Not a very good pic, but it shows the problem, I think:
