Have you tried changing your video card. Most of the problems such as rippling are caused by a poor input signal from the video card.

Written on: 12/04/2002 by Jon.

Had nothing but problems with this Sony 19" 420G monitor. Had a mind of it's own. Would flicker, switch off and sometimes not even boot up with computer. Gladly gave it up for a new Philips, which I love. (read more)

Easy setup and customization; flat face; wonderful colors and graphics; not quite so good text; price has come down since I got mine six months ago. (read more)
