Sometimes, the image on my LCD monitor shakes and it has done this ever since I bought the monitor almost three years ago. If I press the "Auto" button on the monitor, it resets and the shaking goes away. What could be causing this and is there anything I can do to stop it from happening? Thanks!

Is your cellphone nearby? Mine did this too and I could never figure it out and it annoyed me since it was new. I realized that my cellphone was causing it. Before someone calls or sometimes just when it is just sitting there, like some sort of configuration must be going on, it causes my monitor to shake.

First of all, congrutalions on your monitor.\n\nSecond of all, I will think there are some issues with the video drivers. What your describing happened to my a long time ago. Try uninstalling all video drivers and monitor drivers, restart computer and install 'working' video drivers (not always the latest video drivers for your video card are the best) and monitor drivers.\n\nI must think that new DLLs are in conflict with old DLLs, that's why you see wierd things sometimes.\n\nHope this helps,\n\nRicardo Zea

Your monitor has some screen controls like "horizontal positioning" and "vertical positioning" Use those to move the picture to the center again. They usually work with the up/down/ left/right cursor buttons. Press one and hit a cursor key to move the image - if it gets worse press the opposite cursor.\n\nMaybe your monitor got bumped and the original settings were lost.

Sounds like it could be a short in the wiring to the monitor. If it changes as you slowly open or close the monitor, then that is it. If it is visible before windows boots up, then that is it as well.

Most likely it's getting Old...You can try to correct this with you screen settings via you Video card...First try you gamma setting, contrast, brightness...but as cheap as Monitors are now, you better off getting a New LCD flat screen monitor anyways...

It could actually be your computer screen. I know that my old laptop had a malfunctioning screen. Try contacting the manufacturer to see if infact it is a monitor problem and not a software problem.

I had the same problem with my old crt monitor, the monitor itself was making the noise. I lowered the resolution of the monitor : Right click on desktop > properties>\nand it went away.

i know this will be a pain, but try it on another computer. this way we can tell if it's the monitor or the video card. I have a feeling it's the monitor. While you have the cable disconnected, check the pins. It's real easy to bend one.

You may need to reinstall your video card or monitor drivers.  Check your floppies and CD's for them, if you don't have them, then check the manufacturers' websites out.  You can usually find your model information on the rear decal of your monitor and on the video card itself.

Don't whack your flat panel with your hand. It could be a cable, hardware, software or an electromagnetic issue.\n\nFirst, check your monitor cable for bent pins and try a different cable.\n\nWhen you installed your monitor, did your comptuer automatically detect and install a driver for it or did the monitor come with software?  Or is it possible your computer updated the driver software recently? You can try going to the manufacturer's website and under "support" looking up current hardware drivers for your monitor's model. Download and install the driver.\n\nThe easiest and best solution is to take it back if it's still under warranty.

It's a problem with your monitor. \n\nYour pc is actually starting fine, it's the refresh rate that's made the monitor unable to work out what it's supposed to be displaying\n\nSee if you can drop it back down to 60Hz in your display properties in safe mode before reboorting, then presto you should have it back again. \n\nIf that doesn't work I'm not too sure how to do it in Windows, but because I have an old monitor, I've done it the text based way about 0324234234 times in linux.

check your display by changing directions(viewing directions, as display of LCD differs in some angles) if you find the same problem press deguass button on your screen. if this do not work contact compac service center.

I have the same issue with mine, I am not sure of what can be done yet, as I have taken mine apart and checked all the connections / cables pertaining this this LCD problem. However,Your laptop can still work with an external monitor. So for a short term fix you need to acquire another monitor / LCD Monitors are reasonably priced now.\nUntil we find the real fix....

When you press "Print Screen," what happens? Does it just not work, or the graphics are messed up, what?\n\nTry restarting your computer if it just doesn't take a screen shot, sometimes that happens to me when I try to take a screen shot. I don't know why that happens, but the computer just stops taking screen shots after taking a couple already.

A normal CRT screen has a "refresh" period where the electron beam is actually moving from the bottom of the screen where it finished drawing the screen back to the top.  This period the screen is actually blank or partically blank.  The human eye cannot see this, so it's not a problem.  But to a camera which freezes time in a split second, it can catch this time when the monitor is in it's blanking stage.\n\nSince most monitors are shipped running at 60 hertz on the refresh, you will usually capture half of the screen during it's blanking period as video cameras run at normal 30 frames per second.\n\nIf you want to reduce the "flicker" seen, up your refresh rate on your monitor.  By doing this you reduce the chance of the video camera seeing the blanking period of the monitor.  Do this in Windows by right clicking on the screen, clicking the "settings" tab and then click on "advanced".  Under the "monitor" tab you will find the refresh rate setting.  Usually setting to a higher refresh also makes viewing the screen easier on the eyes.  And many gamers prefer a higher rate to make games look more fluid.  This might not elminate the "flicker" on video, but should reduce it a lot.  Try many different rates if you monitor will handle it.

Go to "Control Panel"/"Screen"/"Screensaver" tab/"Energy" button/\nand from the "Turn off monitor" list, choose "never".\nThat would just prevent the monitor from turning it off, I know it's not a "complete solution" but it's a start.\nI also, profusely suggest that you look for the computer's manual and check on this issue, it might be a known bug.
