I just noticed the last few days my screen is shaking a bit. On the left hand side...does this mean it's dieing or what? It seems to only do it in windows, and not during games, but it could be my terrible eye sight lying to me, or denial..help please.

I had same problem, but it took a while for monitor to finally die. :blink:

A good excuse to get flat screen.

Possibly intense magnetic field in near vicinity.
Tried degaussing? Or is it one of those older things that didn't have degauss?

Of course, it's possible that the thing is actually dying down, but as Anubis said it usually takes them a while from first symptoms to reaching an official junk status.

Speakers and/or transformers are the most common causes..

You don't happen to have any wires with transformers on within say 50-70 cm from the BACK of your screen?

Oh.. and for god sake, do NOT listen to Indignus IV's "advice", as this might harm the monitors allignment permanently.

The moniters at my school do that, but that's also because they're the most horrendously budget priced hardware you will ever see.

Monitor Shaking sounds like a sport.
