LCD has lines through it (ripples)

by mne . Updated 18 years, 8 months ago

A friend bought a brand new HP media centre PC with a 19″ wide screen LCD. The monitor has what i can only describe as faint scan lines or ripples travelling up and down the screen, sometimes they go up and sometimes down. If you view a CRT through a video camera, it kind of looks like that, only smaller and not as distinct. My first thought was speakers or something similar near the monitor was causing the problem, however there is nothing near the monitor, i even moved the monitor as far away from anything as the cable would allow just in case, but the problem persisted. They took the monitor back to the store and got it replaced that day, the new monitor worked fine for a little while then also displayed the same distortions in the screen. All the cables are connected properly, I went through the display settings and don’t think there is anything there that would cause it. I got nothing… Any ideas?
