hi
okay well i have a Lg Flatron L1710S LCD Screen and it was working just fine until today when i turned on the computer and let it load win xp.
then out of no were i got this big line off color starting from the top of the screen and was working it's way down the screen. i dont no what it was doing all i no is that while it was making it's way down the screen that it kinda smudged all the colors together in a way that you couldn't make out anything and all that was left was a screen full of color. and it would stay that way. so i tryed restarting the computer from the tower and while it was starting up the colors would still be there so i was unable to use the computer. until about 20 min later when i turned it back on it would have it at the begining but when it loaded windows it just disapeared. and while i was writing this it happend again and got to half way and just disapeard again.
so my question is this a monitor problem or a 3d card problem as a have a radeon 9600 xt or something els ??
becuase i have never seen anythin like it and i have been using computers and dealing with there problems for a long time now.
i'm kinda guessing that it might be a monitor problem and it happend even on start up.
if i could get and answer that would be great as i still have warrenty on the computer and so i could just get a replacement.
thx in advance
