Weird Lines! Could use some help
« on: August 27, 2005, 01:38:48 am »
hey everyone,

I recently bought an UMK3 and it runs perfectly. The only problem being the monitor.

On the left side of the screen, theres about 3 or 4 blurry, vertical white lines. On top of that, the screen will occasionly darken for a moment or two.




The Pic is blurry, but the Lines are in plain sight.
Any help would be much appreciated. If you want more pics or the monitor specs ( I dont kno them off-hand ) Let me Know,

Thanks,             - Joe

Your monitor needs a capkit.

There's a guy on ebay that sells a capkit "how to" cd. If you google around you can find some sites that also tell how to install a capkit and what's involved. This is a question that's asked alot. Isn't this in the monitor FAQ?
