Pommier Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 All of a sudden everything on the computer screen has gone 'ghosty'. I've tried 'sharpen image' but that doesn't help. I wondered if it might be a virus - we've got AVG and Zone Alarm and I've got AVG to do a full scan but it's found nothing.Can anyone suggest what's wrong, and more importantly, how to fix it?Many thanksCheryl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groslard Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 are you sure it isn't a problem with the screen? as opposed to the computer itself I mean.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pommier Posted January 20, 2008 Author Share Posted January 20, 2008 No, unfortunately I don't know if it's the screen. I haven't got another screen to test it on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert the InfoGipsy Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 From what you say it sounds more like a physical problem than a virus.What sort of screen is it? LCD? (Flat & thin)CRT? (Traditional big box)When you say it's 'ghosty' do you mean that the image is low in contrast or that it's fuzzy and blurred? Are you using this computer/monitor to read this question? [8-)]Have you checked that the monitor cable is plugged into the computer properly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pommier Posted January 20, 2008 Author Share Posted January 20, 2008 Hi Albert,Brilliant!!!!Thank you so much - it was the cable connecting moniter to computer. I waggled it a bit and the screen went right.Many thanksCheryl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
