If it happens in all programs (like your browser, your e-mail client, Notepad, MS Word) I'd try another monitor first, and if that doesn't help another video card.
Trying this monitor on another PC or laptop is a useful diaganostic also. Surely you know someone that has a compuer for you to use?
You only have to buy a replacement for what is broken.

After switching on my computer, about all the time (means the system in on condition) horizontal shadows start appearing on the words and images. The words get blurer cos the shadows overlap on it and makes it extremely hard to read.
Is there any way to solve this problem or is my monitor conking out? Do I have to purchase a new monitor? I am using Dell 20' wide screen flat panel monitor
