Strange monitor noise by vectorz 2005-05-17 09:16:11
Some days ago, my screen started to develop an _very_ annoying, high pinched noise. But the interesting part is, that it only happens when most of the screen is white, or slightly yellow, andy other primary corlor, nothing, mostly black, nothing, open a new word sheet.... Yes these are the UF colors, and yes, I'm getting a headache from writing this.

Any ideas what could cause this and how to possibly fix it? Apart form a new screnn of course.

Thanks.
