This may be your video card going bad.  If there is a fan on the video card, make sure it is free of dust and operational.  If you have access to a different video card then try that.

check your windows display drivers and try reinstalling them\nand check again.

I hope I'm wrong, But if the bars that you are talking about are on both sides, that means that the circutry that explands the horizontal are defective... if it is a desktop, try a different monitor, probably you'll find out that the problem goes away, which only means that is time for an upgrade... if it is on a laptop... is even worse... you'd have to find someone to repair it... but like I said, hopefully I'm wrong...

either reinstall your drivers, or buy a new monitor...\n\nwas there a power surge, or did you buy the monitor from another source?  many instances of this occurrance is the monitor is faulty and needs to be repaired/replaced...

I don't know but the same thing is happening to my computer. So I'm going to stay posted on your question to see if anything helps.

This may have to do with Windows adjusting the display settings to either better work with your monitor refresh settings or display adapter card.\nUpdate the driver on your display adapter card.  Check out what its settings are at:\nright click the desktop and go to properties>settings> advanced> adapter\nCheck the monitor settings as well.

Is it a old computer?  How much RAM are you running?  Could be that you have spyware and malicious programs running in the background that you are not aware of.

There is probably something wrong with your mobo or your memory or VGA card, you have to troubleshoot them, most likely sounds like a memory problem

It could be the answer directly above mine, but it could also be the video drivers on your computer, this is no easy thing to fix, but try running a google search for "video driver tutorial" or something along those lines. A walkthrough would be too tedious to type here.

I think your monitor needs to be replaced or repaired. The faded spots are burn spots from the monitor being on or are spots where the pixels are dying. It's not something that can be cleaned.

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.
