I have a Dell 24" monitor and I just started getting 4 white dots across the
upper half of my screen.. spaced like this . . . .
But it is only on the PC Input #2 I have HDTV thru the #5 input and it
dosen't show up on that screen. I have changes the desktop picture
and that didn't work. Could it have something to do with my Video Card?
Has anyone else ever seen this?

Does it do it at every resolution you can put your computer into or just a
given resolution?

Try changing the resolution and then changing it back.

If no joy:

If your video card has a second output, try connecting to that.
