Ive got a Mitsubishi Diamond Pro 930sb CRT monitor and recently ive been getting a very thin brighter band across the bottom of the screen, about an inch or 2 up that moves up n down. Tonight the screen has started flickering from time to time like when you place a mobile phone too close to it but on a much less scale. And just now the top and bottom of the screen has started moving shorter n taller, like how you can select within the option on the on screen display but very rapidly.
Is my monitor dying? :(
 
Yes.
It is a known fault with this monitor. How old is the monitor as if less than 3 years old you can take advantage of the Excellent warranty still covered by NEC/Mitsu even if you are not the original purchaser.
I speak from personal experience as a 2nd owner of the same monitor. I rang them and gave them the serial number off the back, get this first as it's in a well awkward place and the monitor as you know is heavy.
Once they have the number and if under 3 years old they will arrange pick up. They said 5 days to me but it was back on the 4th day :cool:
Am using it now it's an excellent monitor.
