all of a sudden my screen is all weird

Aug 26, 2007 10:52PM PDT

hi,

i just woke up and started my iBook G4, and sth weird happened to my screen. at some places it seems more fuzzy & defocused than others. additionally my screen starts to move as a whole when i move the mouse, so for example when i move the mouse to the bottom right, the screen moves to the top left and vice versa.

this is really weird and I'm very worried. The only thing I did differently lately is set under System Prefs - Universal Access everything to Greyscale and B&W because I was working alot at night. Can this be a virus?? I'm running ClamXav which is the only thing I have but I don't know if its any good.

please help
dan

Thanks for posting back with the solution and not just sliding off and never mentioning it again.

Believe me, when there is a virus out there, you will see it all over these forums like white on rice


Happy
