O Noes!!! Teh Skreen Br0ked!!!111
Ok i was trying to untangle some cords so i had to unplug my monitor from the electric and my computer. after I was done and i turned my computer back on the desktop screen shakes. kinda like when when u turn your mon off and back on and it shakes kinda like that but it won't stop, teh monitor is like shivering. how ever when playing a game or viewing video full screen iit doesn't shake
also is it some sort of metal reaction because i just put a stereo on top of the monitor
some games shake

?
did you bend some of the pins on the end of the video connector?
-
Re: O Noes!!! Teh Skreen Br0ked!!!111
i looked no pins appeared to be bent and it fits into the plug with ease

Re: O Noes!!! Teh Skreen Br0ked!!!111
anyway, you shouldn't put unshielded speakers close to yoru monitor.
the magnets will fuck em up after a while.

Re: O Noes!!! Teh Skreen Br0ked!!!111

There's the answer right there. Is that the amplifier? Remove it from there!

Re: O Noes!!! Teh Skreen Br0ked!!!111
While it's true that monitors with CRTs(picture tubes) are affected by electromagnetic interference, what you're experiencing doesn't sound like that.
I would suspect a failing capaciter in your horizontal sweep or power supply. Although, a failing/bad soldered connection in that same circuit can cause the same symptom. Try rapping firmly on the side, the problem may just go away. (bad soldered connections are a common problem in electronics and can appear or go away with no apparent reason)
Otherwise, it may need fixing.
BTW, by not having your monitor in front of me to physically check, I could be wrong.

Re: O Noes!!! Teh Skreen Br0ked!!!111
So moving it solved the problem then?

Re: O Noes!!! Teh Skreen Br0ked!!!111
no the screen still shakes

Re: O Noes!!! Teh Skreen Br0ked!!!111
At least you won't have to bother with the visualisations in winamp anymore... :unsure:
If all else fails just keep jiggling the wires going into the monitor and from the monitor to the machine and see if that works. If not, take it to a repair shop cos it's probably just fucked.

Re: O Noes!!! Teh Skreen Br0ked!!!111
Try increasing the refresh rate, that's probably what's happening when you play a game.

edit. the manufactures say mine are magnetic shielded and are suitable for pcs
flat screen is fine........
doesnt use magnets like a CRT monitor does, so it isnt affected by the magnets in your speakers....... shielded or not.......

Re: O Noes!!! Teh Skreen Br0ked!!!111
I suggest you reread my post and then make your decision.
FYI: it would be useful when asking for help that you state what type of monitor you have.
Unplug your monitors' power cord for awhile and also try it on another PC. At least eliminate the simple possibilities before you spend the money on a repair or replacement.
Oh did I mention to reread my post, I speak from experience in the electronics repair industry.

Re: O Noes!!! Teh Skreen Br0ked!!!111
Maybe try another electrical outlet. One where there are no AC adaptors.

Re: O Noes!!! Teh Skreen Br0ked!!!111
LIke Lynx said, if it's changing in games then it must be something to do with the refresh rate/resolution that you are using.
