Monitor question (CRT)

I have an optiquest 19" monitor that just started going in and out about
a 1/16" to 1/4" ie; toward the viewer and away from the viewer. Any one
ever seen this before? It will do it about 10 times in an hour. It
otherwise runs perfect. I have changed resolutions and freq's with out
an effect. Have killed any sources of RF near by also no affect. I have
even opened it up and blown all the dust and crap off the inside. Can a
video card cause this?

(No I have not tried another monitor yet, but will when I have time)

Have you tried changing the refresh rate?

Barring interference, it's most likely the monitor, IMHO. I just sent back
an AOC unit for a similar problem, but it was more pronounced.

Yes from 60 through 100 MHz

Then I would take the other posters suggestion...or at least try someone
elses monitro, and see if it still does it, post when you find that out,
if it still does it.
