Suddenly have shadows across our monitor. Not on desktop,
only around "open windows" or applications opened with
text. We assumed monitor and bought new one. SAME problem.
Someone else on other help site posted perfect picture of
this problem.

Any suggestion for this mystery?

We have Windows 2000 Professional running in an NT
Environment (whatever THAT means) as we do not network,
single station. Thanx all!
