    ok my monitor has done this for a couple of months now its really annoying,my monitor will twitch on the left side and it will show like an inch of black line but the other sides fine, to fix this i usually give it a nudge to make it go back to normal i was just wondering if any of you guys have had this problem?

    sometimes my 17" lcd does this but only when my screen does an adjust but all I have to do is hit the auto config button.

    possible cold solder joint inside the monitor on the circuit board

    could take it in to a repair place to see how much it will cost than decide which is cheaper, a repair or a new monitor of the same size.
