I think the distortion is all over the screen equally but only when I
changed the pixel size did it scrunch up the left and right edges. The
squeak is maybe just audio animation free-of-charge? :-)

You may have a monitor about to fail, if the distortions are non-linear,
that
is worse around the edges than in the middle, then the screen itself may
have
focusing problems

| | Hi Again
| | I also forgot to mention that the monitor does a continuous squeak when
| you
| | first turn it on
| | and squeaks when the screens change while it is loading but then quits
| when
| | the desktop comes on.

| | Hi Bert
| | Thanks for the reply. The setting is currently at 800x600 pixels. It is
| | stretched horizontally to the point that all I see of the start button
is
| | the "t". When I move the slider to the right as little as possible it
goes
| | to 1024x768 pixels which is too small.

| | After Windows loads, go to Control Panel - Display - Settings,

| | doesn't fix it please post back.
