SVGA monitor white diagonal lines
rampy:
HELP!
My 21" KDS industrial monitor has developed white diagonal lines and it "flsshes" different intensisties (for lack of a better explanation...) it happened after I wrestled a bit to get it out of my cabinet when I discovered my frame/mount was too proud and needs to be shaved down more... once I got it back on the desk it now displays these weird white lines kinda diagonally under the picture...
I can't find much info about this type of ocndiition... I saw some stuff alluding to arcade monitors and having the brightness cranked up way too much or something (or was it contrast?)
Is there a trimmer pot some where I could adjust to get the picture back to normal...
I'm pretty deperate fior help as losing this monitor would really monkey wrench my cabinet plans....
Thanks!

well..your monitor has contrast controls..if not then do it by software..whatever software you video card is using..and decrease contrast.my monitor gives me similer problem when i put the contrast level at its highest.
its like some extra while lines aint it?
and colors look washed out too am i right?

thanks snaaaaaaaAAAake...
Turns out it was just a fluke thing... I let it sit and the the next day it's fine... regardless, I found the adjustment pots in case it acts u again... plus now it's mounted into my cab... so it shouldn't get jostled anymore.

Does anyone know what would cause little white lines (slightly diagonal, almost horizontal) to appear on my 27" TV??
I have to turn the brightnesss way up to make them go away, the lower I set the brightness the worse they are, also the darker the image on the screen, the more noticable they are.
Any ideas?
