New Monitor Problems

I got a Sony Trinitron 20" earlier this summer from school, and when I got it back to my place and set it up, I noticed that the image was tilted on the screen. Usually there is a geometry control for this, but I couldn't find one on the monitor. I reset the monitor, but still had the same problem. I was wondering if anyone knew of anything I could do to fix this, or if there was any software which would allow me to control the image.

Thanks in advance,
Brian

Keep looking. I'd bet anything the tilt adjustment is the. It may be called parallel or rotation.

I've looked all over the place, and there is no tilt control. I've even tried a combination of other controls, but I can't get it to work. Even though I got the monitor for free, it was in perfect shape, and it's still worth a lot if I can get it to work properly.

This may be a mechanical problem that can be corrected by rotating the deflection yoke on the neck of the CRT. This is an extremely simple adjustment for a savvy tech.
