  1. Horizontal lines covering monitor screen


    Hi all, I was using my PC when spontaneously thin blacked out horizontal lines appeared covering my entire monitor screen. Also when I touch my cursor to the bottom of my monitor screen the white from it covers the entire height of the monitor fading slightly by the time it reaches the top. I’m not sure if it’s a problem with the monitor itself or maybe the graphics card or if there’s a fix for it Help would be very much appreciated

    :)

    Any refresh rate above 60hz horizontal lines on monitor

    Hello

    My last question/posting was about a problem I was having where a constant black screen was covering most of the desktop except for a small strip at the very top of my monitor that was clear.

    After following suggestions posted as answers to the question I ended up resetting windows completely and the black screen was gone.

    Now when I go to settings>system>display>advanced display to change my refresh rate back to the highest allowed by the monitor in question (144hz) I am met with the same black screen with the same small strip of desktop on top as before.

    Is there a way to fix this inside of Windows without ordering an entirely new monitor?

    Looked online for people with similar questions/problems and could not find any sure solutions.

    (Also tried all refresh rate options from 60hz - 144hz and the screen has lines over it but is still visible just covered in these horizontal lines)

    Is there a way to fix this inside of Windows without ordering an entirely new monitor?

    Monitor is G2490VX from AOC 23.8in

    Thanks in advance for any help/suggestions

    Dual Screen horizontal lines and tearing.

    Hello All

    I have a dual screen setup, with my desktop extended to a second monitor. A week or so after updating windows 10 with the creators update my dual screen set up is experiencing a large horizontal line traveling up one of my displays with shaking below. I have attached an image.

    Horizontal lines covering monitor screen 137297d1496096087t-dual-screen-horizontal-lines-tearing-screen-tearing.jpg


    This first happened on my primary display (29" Asus connect with display port). After rebooting the tearing then moved over to my secondary display where it has remained for the last week intermittently. (Samsung 22" connected with a VGA to DVI adapter). Both Monitors are connected to my ATI R9 270.

    I have ruled out the display hardware as this issue goes away in safe mode. If I set my computer to only use one display either the 22" or 29", the issue is gone. I have also connected to another computer (mac book pro) and the tearing does not persist.

    Other things I have tried:

    • Reboot
    • Shut down
    • Pulled power cords from monitors and pc for 30 minutes
    • Update graphics card driver
    • Reinstall graphic card driver
    • Try different connectors
    • Uninstall display device in hardware manager

    Any and all help is appreciated as this one is really driving my nuts!

  4. Horizontal lines covering monitor screen

    E90 Horizontal Black Line in LCD Cover Display

    Recently noticed a small black horizontal line in E90 cover LCD display. Line was getting longer and shorter througout the day. Sometimes stretching across the entire width of the display. Updated the phone's software but no use. Nokia Careline advisor
    suggested removing the battery, SIM card and memory card for 15 minutes, but this did not help either. In the end, took the phone to the Nokia Care Centre where they admitted this is a common hardware problem with Nokia displays. They even have a problem code
    associated with this 'Black line in LCD'. Phone is under warranty and is with them for repair.
