screen is cinched in the middle like a waist

[Guest]

For several months, my screen has had a concave appearance as though a rope
has been tied around the middle and it is being pulled together like a waist.
It is getting worse. It appears fine right after startup, but then sudenly it
changes. Anyone seen this before? Any ideas?
Thanks
Nan

Woops! Sorry about that last 'post'- not much help!! This is a hardware
problem. Either Somebody has twiddled your knobs (lucky you!) or your monitor
is on its last legs. There should be buttons or some kind of control on your
monitor to rectify this. I hate to say this, but if it appears fine on start
up it sounds as though the electronic controls inside (don't even think about
messing inside-there are huge voltages, which can give a very nasty, possibly
fatal shock even after the monitor is unplugged) are heating up and failing.
I don't know your setup, but around the case of the monitor are ventilation
holes or slots. Check that you have nothing blocking/covering these. A free
flow of air is required to keep componants cool. You may need to consider
replacing the monitor.

Thank you! I went through my monitor settings and sure enough, that was the
problem. I put everything back to factory settings and it has been fine.
