Tft monitor is ghosting everything on the screen

everything on my screen has a ghost of it to the right of it. The very last bit of e.g a window isghosted over and over for about a centremeter. Best way to describe it is when you have a blinking ccurser will the "|" gets ghosted faintly over and over. Its visable though.

I have a tft monitor. I dont know what specs to give you if they are needed so you will have to tell me what is required.

Anyway do you have any solutions, or does it sound like a hardware problem?

Im using a nvidia fx5200 card

Have you tested the monitor on another system to see if it is the monitor itself?

I had a problem like that. It was a bad/cheap vga cable.

I had a similar experience. I bought a nice NEC LCD monitor but it only came with a VGA cable and the picture was terrible. I purchased a DVI cable and used that. I really made a huge difference in picture quality.

I dont know of I will be able to replace the cable. It doesnt seem to have a connector on the end into the monitor. Its rounded so I think its perminently attached. Plus it was connected already when I got it. SO I think I may be stuck like this. Oh well its not really noticable I tend to have light colpurs anyway so it I only se it if i really concentrate ons eeing it.

Thanks for the help anyway
