Old monitor is fuzzy around edges

[Random Person]

Hi guys. I've got an old Dell E770P CRT monitor (about 5 years) that
I'm currently using...as my main PC at home is busy with work. The
central part of the screen is still sharp but its edges are blurry.

Is there anything I can do to fix this problem? I tried degaussing it
but it doesn't help. I'm currently at 800x600 resolution @ 85 Hz.

Thanks.

There are some internal adjustments...
but it's very dangerous working on the inside of a crt...
Don't risk your life...
just get a new monitor

Quite good second hand 17" monitors can be had for $50AU (about 1 pound in
your dollars these days, it might be worth getting one. Or a KVM.
