Ok heres the deal. A bud gave me a monitor, he got a new one cuz he simply didnt want the hassle of trying to figure it out. Now the prob is that the monitor creates a black hole in the middle every so often. Ive done some messing with it and it seems that the cable in the back is loose, I wiggle it, and it gets worse, gets better... etc... I opened the monitor up and checked it out, I dont know the insides that well. However I did notice that the main card (?) on the bottom seemed loose. So I got it to sit more steady than it was. It seemed to fix it in the beginning, but its began doing it again, and is actually a little bit worse than it was in the beginning, just on the opposite side of the screen.

Anyone have any ideas?

Oh yea, I thought this would be the best thread due to the video seems to be more on cards than monitors. If its wrong sorry! I tried :D

how old is that monitor? u might wanna see if the cables are connected well, and it might be going out slowly.. so id be careful.
