After I trun it back on from useing it the screen will show wavey lines that move up and down the screen. Can you help??
Answer Buy some canned air from an office supply store. use the canned air to blow out all the vent holes of the monitor. Also unplug the monitor.
Also open your computer case and use the canned air to blow the computer out also. Pay special attention to fans and the power supply. The power supply will have vent holes on 2 sides make sure you blow in both vents really well.
If you have an add on video card, make sure it is snug in its, slot. You may want to actually remove it and reinsert it into it's slot.Leave the monitor unplugged for about one day. Move any speakers away from the monitor. After about one day plug the monitor back in. Use the buttons on the front to enter the monitor menu and if reset is available choose to reset.
If the problem persists, check the monitor on another computer. If the problem goes away, check your video cable or video card.
You may also want to go into device manager, expand the monitors section and right click your monitor. Choose update driver. Choose to update online.
Micro soft should have an actual driver for westinghouse monitors.
