Hi..I need some help. Last time my computer everything is ok, then after 2 years suddenly got one vertical red line from the top of the screen to the bottom of the screen. Its there no matter what i'm seeing, so i think its the monitor problem. Then at that time sometimes it will have the red line then after about 10 minutes will disappear, then reappear again..But now is permanent already. Now even change colour to green and yellow!(sometimes apple green) VERY ANNOYING!!

Then about 2 weeks ago got another line, but this time is thinner and blue color. So far it only sometimes, then disappear..But i'm scared later become permanent then even more lines come out. So basically i'm asking you all whether this problem can be fixed or not..And if it is the video card problem or monitor problem. My video card is Geforce Fx5500. If cannot fix then i go and buy new monitor..

HEY !!

i have the same exactly problem with u ! but mine is 'white' color line ... the line tend to be more 'clear' then the image behind...

Whether in desktop, or in windows mode i can see the line on top of my monitor there .... i juz notice about few days ago onli .

strangly, when im watching video, the line disappear .... @@

The problem is your monitor magnet.
Previously my samsung flat monitor occur the same problem.You need to seperated the ultra violet item for example (handphone, speaker ) from monitor for a long period before it can resume to the normal.

If you're using an LCD monitor the red line is a dead pixel on your monitor

ya using lcd monitor..But now is yellow line already. Sometimes change to green line and sometimes greenish-blue like that..lol.. So can it be fixed or what?

Looks like you have a dead pixel on your lcd monitor, I think they have some solutions online somewhere try Googling it. Otherwise you have to contact you monitor's manufacturers.

if ur monitor still under warranty, send back to the shop u bought for rma claim. send fast fast, u know.

nolah, my com bought in 2003..er..I already tried the stuff online, but i think is hardware problem. Just wondering whether it is worth it to repair it if it is reparable. If not i might go and buy a new mon itor.

if urs is samsung brand, u can send for megapact repair since u just use it around 2yr only.

if u have the money, that is u already put aside money for ur food, bills, transportation, parents, belanja girlfriend, etc.. then go buy a new monitor la. new monitor = new display, new experience. u can show off to ur girlfriend & watch movies together. she can manja-manja with u.
