More computer woes...

The image on my monitor is now vibrating all the time. Ew, headache. I managed to get around the problem by changing to 1024x728, but the fact is my monitor is too tiny to function properly at those settings either - I'm torn between tinytiny everything and shakingshaking everything.

Anybody have ANY advice?

I have to agree with the previous comment - if it's an old monitor, it's probably just dying. It happens. Especially if it's an old crappy monitor that doesn't have Trinitron technolgoy (Trinitron monitors have two hair-thin lines running across the monitor, one 1/3rd of the way down and the other 2/3rd down). I've known some monitors to only last 2 or 3 years. Your best bet is just to buy a new one.

One thing I have to ask - is it *flickering* or *shaking*? If it's flickering, your refresh rate is too low - like at 60 Hz. You want it at least 70Hz.

Shaking. The image moves up and down and sideways. It does NOT disappear and reappear, or get brighter and darker.
