299421 2004-12-03 18:02:00 Hello to everyone,
Lately I have problems with my machine as periodically the screen has greenish blurs on it-say I start up the computer-all normal and start work and then all of a sudden and mainly on white pages the are greenish sort of stripes
looking a bit like when a untidy fax comes through the phone line..
Also the screen blacks out on minute, or even less, intervals.
After restart it's usually all ok?
Would someone be able to explain to me what I could do about this?
Monitor is a Philips 109S4, machine is a pentium 4 with 1.5GB memory.
For any help many thanks in advance.

Have you checked that the monitor's cables are plugged in properly to the computer?

How old is everything and what brands?
