Hey guys, my monitor has developed (overnight) this sort of flicker in the bottom right corner...I'm not sure what it could be, I've tried different refresh rates, resolutions, color depth, different electrical outlets and nothing. It's a relatively new monitor too, no more than a couple years old. Could it be interference from something? Or is the monitor on its way out? Any help would be appreciated.

Any magnets of sorts nearby?

Heh, that statement's a little contradictory. Depending on the monitor, how often it's used, etc it may only last 3-5 years. Like the previous poster said, make sure nothing magnetic is nearby. Try moving any nearby speakers away from the monitor. Do you have a fan or other AC power device on near the monitor?

Well, no magnets that I can tell. It's been set up like this for a while, but then the other day it just started twitching down there. Usually my monitor is 'on' 24/7, but the computer shuts it off after 20 minutes or so to save it.

I don't know, it seems to get worse and better and random times...
