I had a nasty experience with a b/w monitor that was doing the same thing.
Two months after mine started doing that I got a big electric shock one day
while adjusting the monitor. Technician got an even bigger one two days
later. I can't remember what the tech guy called it. Not regulator. The
monitor died a couple of months after that. In my case, it started doing it
every 20 days or so, but increased to every day, then a few times every day.

I'm just passing along what happened to me with the same monitor, I know the
tech guys said don't worry. Maybe mine had a different problem with the same
symptoms.
