Monitor problems?

[Greyd]

My monitor is starting to act weird. The screen seems to "contract" (get big then small ever so slightly - not huge) and there seems to be some kind of "blipping" on the screen. Like these really quick flashes - little lines that flash off and on. At first I thought it was the card/monitor connection, but that doesnt seem to be the problem. Is my monitor going bad? BTW its like 7 years old. Mag Innovision.

Thanks

Badump. Anyone?

The screen contracting is an indication of high voltage failure. If you got 7 years out of it consider yourself lucky, most only last 3-4.
