i think u havent installed the VGA drivers ..commonly known as display drivers, grafix drivers or drivers for the display adapter .......... pop in the Motherboard drivers CD in the optical drive and then install the drivers ..... see if u r nt getting the STANDBY option in system "turn off" menu too....

^^ Yupp .. Dont keep your cell phone near the monitor (if its a CRT). Also check if power fluctuation is there .. I remember when I had a CRT monitor the display used to fizzle if it was running on inverter ..

bhai log harry potter jab bachaane ke liye khud aa gaye hoon to baki kya jaroorat. Harry says it all, besides keeping your electomagnetic instruments away.

you should have told initally what type of monitor do you got.
Besides updating the drivers if this happens randomly then switch off and on the display. Also in CRT there is an option to Buzz the monitor, someone correct me with the exact term, I do not have a CRT to check and tell it right away.

the liquid crystals in his lcd have melted due to the hot sun and are sliding down the monitor due to gravity, and the image is floating on top of it...
