Help!!! Monitor brightness goes up and down

[ant80]

The monitor fades and comes back up. Previously, it used to turn blue. I 'fixed' it by spankin' it a little on its side. Don't know how it worked, but the original color came on. Now that the fading is going on, is it time I changed the monitor? Or should I wait till it goes out? Any medical effects of looking at a monitor that is like this? Thanks in advance.

You will go blind and your penis will fall off.

Try:
a: reinstalling your vid card drivers,
b: a different vid card,
c: a different monitor on existing system,
d: a different video cable.
also,
e: reseat your vid card.
