I'm not sure how long ago the problem started, but I just started noticing lines across my ViewSonic flatscreen monitor. I'm not sure how old the monitor is but I think it's quite old because I bought it used a few years ago. The line's are more obvious depending on the color the background. But when I'm playing a game they're quite obvious. It's sort of hard to explain, but for example, on a white background i see little grey stripes and then normal while stripes in between. They're sort of moving and shifting too, it's quite annoying. Is my monitor broken or what?

I have the same problem with the lines across the monitor with my Dell Deminision 850 MHz when hooked up two different monitors to the Dell as well as a Compaq. The lines show up when attached to the Dell but not the Compaq. Could this be because the drivers are not compatable with the monitors?
