I recently purchased a 386 system with a Nanao 9070U 16" VGA monitor. I have replaced the monitor twice and all of them have the same problem: When certain colors are displayed on the screen, such as dark green or grey, a set of light and dark bands can be seen. The curvature of the bands suggest a magnetic field interference, but there is nothing in the room which would generate a field strong enough to cause the interference. The bands move when the screen is rotated, so it appears to be an influence of Earth's magnetic field. Degaussing the monitor makes no difference. Has anyone else seen this problem? -- John Waycott USENET: {uunet|noao}!asuvax!mcdphx!waycott Motorola MCD INTERNET: waycott@phx.mcd.mot.com Maildrop DW278 VOICE: 602/438-3464 2900 S.

(Regarding strange banding pattern when certain colors are displayed.) I've seen a problem similar to what you describe on a 9070S, but not severe enough to warrant returning the monitor. -- Scott D. Eberline scotte@locus.com or uunet!lcc!scotte
