Yellow'ish lines on the left side of my monitor?
 

Has any one else had this before?

On the left side of my monitor, I can see 3 lines of faded yellow going from top to bottom, 1st left one is the strongest, then it fades away. I can see it the most on white back-grounds, harder to see in other colours (as it's just 1 colour)

Any clues what it could be? :erm: :confused:

try degausing the monitor.

Already tried, didn't do anything.

must be the tube on it's way out. is it an old monitor? has it been sat in direct sunlight? could it be screen burn? May be pixel discolouration...

It's an old'ish monitor, but not too old.

Aren't you using some cr*ppy old graphics card? Could it be that?

Re: Yellow'ish lines on the left side of my monitor?
 

No, as it's the same on any graphics card.

have any speakers been near the monitor? any sort of magnet will disrupt the electron beam in the CRT causing them to miss their target and give you dodgy colours.

My speakers have magnetic shielding, I even moved the speaker away but it was the same thing.
