Have you changed or updated your graphics card drivers or directx lately?

No. Why? Is that important? rubschin:

Not if you havent done so, I've known odd display problems happen on systems where the wrong drivers have been installed by mistake.

Having said that if you check your graphics card and download the latest drivers for it it, it wont do your system any harm and may fix the blue line if it isnt a buggered monitor. Try www.guru3d.com

 Try www.guru3d.com

Never actually did this. Apologies after all your help too. redface:]

However, after talkin' to a mate of mine yesterday, he reckons it's probably just some of the pixels not werkin' proper like, and will probably be fixed by downloading something and leaving it to mend itself over approx 12 hours...retuning the pixels or summat? confused:

Is this what your link is all about? had a look, but it's a mighty big web page. Which bit do i need to load?

Just go to pixelsRus and buy some more. Drop them into the back of your monitor like little bits of confetti. That should fix it.

Sounds like a couple of blocked pixel jets to me. Only the blue pixels are getting through.

Simple solution is to pop the whole monitor in the dishwasher for a couple of cycles.

Don’t listen to him Growler – pixelsRus are shite… I tried them once but the monitor blocked completely.  noooo:

You really have to buy your pixels from the company that made the monitor – they are a bit more expensive but they work better… sorry they werk better like.  happy088
