Artifacts on flatscreen monitor

I get artifacts around my cursor for the mouse on screen and have artifacts appearing all over my screen. Monitor is a Benq FP91G+ 18' i think I have tried resetting video drivers checking refresh rates and changed settings on monitor...nothing helps, this happens on web pages, during online gaming and when just surfing. Is my monitor no good or there is something else i need to do. Running Windows XP home. Sometimes it is not much on screen other times a lot...small dots all over in diff colours, when i scroll they can go into lines.

The two cheapest things to do are, firstly, try your monitor on another persons pc, to see if any difference, and secondly try a different mouse as they can interfere with with graphics dpi.

A straight line on the side of the screen, and another line across the screen heading toward the mouse. Also there is a bunch of light lines like this: | | | heading toward the mouse.

Single Pixel lines indicate a failed Circut board in the screen. Although this being a DV series it could be a failed motherboard. You can test this by plugging the laptop into an external monitor and seeing if the artifacts you see are on the external monitor. If not, change the screen.

Red line on monitor; unsure type of f2105 just know high def

The red line could be caused by the cable, or it could be a problem with the monitor. Pretty easy to test, though, just get another cable and swap it out.Sometimes the cable that snakes through the hinge gets worn causing display artifacts. Try flexing the hinge and see if the behavior changes.

Mouse cursor dissapears

Might be a problem with the graphics driver, try updating the driver, or corrupt windows, the later is most unlikely.
