Visible red, green, and/or blue lines

Symptoms

  • Visible red, green, and/or blue lines

Solution

  • Adjust V-Blanking in service menu until the lines disappear (NOT RECOMMENDED. This only makes the problem invisible and doesn't actually fix the problem. Not fixing the problem can result in multiple components in your monitor being fried.)
