I'm guessing that the bar might be from a pc to monitor problem. The pc might have sent the monitor that bar and it stayed there because the monitor just froze it there. I suggest you do a system restore or system recovery. To do that, I'll give you instructions if you e-mail me at motiur41@aim.com.

For some video cards, there are settings where you can make certain colors appear more vibrant than others. Check your monitor settings in Control Panel -> Display -> Advanced.

It is possible that your problem might be coming from your video card.  Try testing the monitor on another computer to see if it recreates the same problem.  If that is the case you might need to get another video card.  If not, I personally would pitch the monitor and get another one.  Unless you know a lot about electronics messing around with it is ill advised.  There are large capacitors inside monitors that can seriously injure you.\n\nHope this helps and GL :-)

Our reception did that on our monitor.  We figured out it was the video card.  The easiest way to find out if that is the problem is to connect another monitor (perhaps a friend's) to your computer.  If it looks the same, then you know it is the card.

Try lowering your resolution

Just turn the monitor on it's side. Just kidding. You probably hit a hot combo key that controls you graphic adapter. Try hittin your Ctrl key and then the up down arrow keys to get it back right. If that's not it hover your mouse over the systray icons in the bottom right of the screen. Well it may be on the top now. Find one that has to do with you graphics controller right click on it and open it. Browse around in there and find where you can rotate it back.\n\nIf all the above fails go to control panel and then Display and browse in the settings there to find where you can rotate it back.

You may need a color program balance the sharpness of your DVI connection I use a program called Natural Color which came with my monitor. It sounds like the sharpness of your monitor needs to be adjusted.  Also DVI is brighter than analog.

Make sure that your computer isn't set to run at a super-high resolution. The resolution might be higher than the monitor actually supports, so some stuff might get cut off (my old laptop did that).

My first reaction to your problem was to suspect your graphics card.  I guess because of the fact that a bad video signal typically causes problems such as vertical lines and dark bars at the top of the screen.  \n\nNow, that's not to say that your monitor isn't experiencing difficulties....  But, I would try adjusting my screen resolution and also the refresh rate in your display settings.  If the problem changes significantly or goes away, I would blame the graphics card since it was my inital intuition anyway.  \n\nAlthough, before making any definite diagnosis it would be a good idea to try another monitor with your graphics card, or your monitor with another graphics card.

If the colors look weird, then your drivers are probably fried.  If it's the size  you're concerned about, then change the screen resolution.

yup, first thing to do is check your connections.\n\nsecond, open yer desktop PC and check if the video card has been dislodged or something.\n\nthird, most monitors have compatibility issues with a certain desktops, and most monitors do show the same symptoms that you see right now, yellow LED instead of green.\n\nfourth, try using the monitor that came with the Gateway desktop, if that monitor works when you fire up both, that means yer HP monitor isn't compatible with yer Gateway desktop PC.

And you didn't even tell us what kind of video card you have? You really expect us to know THAT much? :)\n\nIn Control Panel / Display / Advanced, there's probably a section about "display orientation". Sounds like you're got changed.
