Monitor Display Shaking ???

[Necrosaro420]

For some reason, it did not do this before, but now it is shaking a little.

I have the monitor set at 75mhz, but when I switch it to 60mhz, it will not shake (I would use it, but the screen will not fill up my monitor like that, and cant adjust it to fit correctly)

It is a Mag 19". It worked fine a while ago, but now when I turn it on, only at 75hz, which is what I had always used, it shakes!!! (also shakes at 70/72 but I do not like those frequencys)

Any ideas? I went to radio shack and bought a filter for it, but that did not help.

Thanks!

i had the same thing with my CRT's it would come and go...dont know whats up

I think that's a sign of the damper wires on your trinitron tube going defective.
I had a refurb Sony FW900 monitor do that.

I hope not....I have maybe 100-125 hours in this monitor since I have bought it new, about 1.5 years ago

Wait wait, the screen is shaking or the whole monitor?

Personally I think every CRT monitor I have ever seen at 75hz did this on the sides. 60 looked fine though of course it looks like the normal flickery 60 hz. Then 85 Hz looked excellent, no flickers and no shaking.

Just the monitor screen. I dont know what the deal is, its hardly been used


60mhz just will not fill up my screen and I can not stretch it with the monitor

it is 60Hz and that number has nothing to do with the sizeing of your screen. THERE HAS TO BE a move/scretch on the monitor somewhere.

Yes there is, but its OSD, and it is set at max 100% going horizontal, and there is about a half inch of black on each side. At 75Hz, it fill's the screen.

i guess the only solution is to go lcd

Can you set it one resolution lower but at 75Hz or 85Hz and tell us the result?

Sure it does. Switch between 60Hz, 75Hz, and 85Hz on the same resolution and watch the display geometry change. Set it for one refresh rate, and the other refresh rates will be off. This is one of the annoying aspects of analog displays.
