Check into the setting buttons on the monitor. Look for something called degaussing. Try that and see if it helps.

Didn't realize it was a LCD monitor. It wouldn't have degaussing, that's only for CRT types.

Are you drivers all up to date (both graphics and monitor)?

Check the CLock/Phase setting. Also OSD timing and position settings. If those are available on yours.

Check the CLock/Phase setting. Also OSD timing and position settings.

My monitor is set to Phase on the Clock/Phase setting and Recall on the OSD. Try the different settings and see if they make any difference.

I also have an Auto Adjust. Resets things to "normal" settings. See if you have that.

I had a play about with the phase settings and pixel clock that has seemed to work thanks for your help.
