What's this blue line then?
« on: September 05, 2007, 10:29:21 PM »
Got a very thin pale blue line running vertically down the screen, and it's getting right on my tits tbh.
What is it? Is the screen goosed p'raps then? ::)
Been like this for weeks now, but it's not got any worse...or better.

It's a flat screen LCD thing if that helps.

Only 3 years old too ffs. evil:

I picked up a decent second hand monitor from a place at Bromborough (on that big retails park) for ?25 when my screen died similarly last year.

Stuff is so cheap now... just junk the old one and get a new one with warranty. Even better, get a new PC and get a 'free' monitor.  whistle:
