I had a video card go bad on one of my machines that caused a very similar problem. Banding and shadowing on every screen. Replacing the card fixed the problem. I'd try the monitor on a different machine if possible, see if the problem follows the monitor. If not, I'd say the card is the problem. -- Andrew Mathews ------------------------------------------------------------ 12:50pm up 1 day, 19:39, 5 users, load average: 1.00, 1.06, 1.10 ------------------------------------------------------------ Hear about... the new instrument of credit especially designed for use in Los Angeles single bars?
