Hi Eric;
It sounds like it needs to be degaussed. At one time it must have been
subjected to a strong magnetic field. OR, you have attached a magnetic
device to the monitor.
I don't know whether these monitors have automatic degaussing like TV
sets - but it seems like they would. Maybe it doesn't work anymore.
Remove any magnetized attachments, turn the monitor off for 5-10 min
and turn it back on.
