Are you using the OEM cable?
Does it have a ferrite filter?
How long has this specific cable been in use ie: terminals in its sockets?
Try unplugging/plugging them a number of times and see what happens, with the PC/monitor turned off.
... don't think it's something nearby that's causing the problem.
Check to see what happens by moving the monitor (if at all possible) to another location.
Does ot have to be more than a couple of feet.
... replace the cable ...
See if you can borrow a quality monitor OEM cable to test.
Cheers,
A.

Have you tried using another cable?When you do have these artifacts on the screen, is there something electrical running nearby?
I've been "monitoring my monitor" since I last checked this thread. I don't think it's something nearby that's causing the problem. I guess the next thing to do is replace the cable if they're not too expensive (it's been a while since I had to buy one separately).

I agree with these previous answers.
Have you tried replacing the monitor cable?
If it's intermittent then the problem is with the hardware (the cable ...

]]>I'm noticing a problem on my monitor. It seems to have started about a month or so ago. For lack of a better way of explaining it, there's like a wiggle, or jiggle, that starts at the bottom of the screen and travels all the way to the top, and then restarts again at the bottom. Does anyone have any ideas what it is, and how to get rid of it? Does it sound like a problem with the monitor itself (the monitor is less than a year old), or something in the computer / OS / graphics card? Below are my computer's specs:
