VF723 Monitor has fine line in middle of screen w/clicking noise

Hello

Something you can try is to have a look at the frequency of the monitor. Right click on the desktop, propperties and have a look at the settings.

It is usually the wrong frequency which result in a noise.

Hope this can be helpful.

Kind regards
Andrea

Although I still have the problem to a slight extent (very slight wavering of the vertical lines going from dark to light or white) reducing the contrast from 100% to 80% seemed to do the trick. Although this monitor is on the way out, it has lasted about 7-8 years now, at least it will keep going for a while.

Try a different monitor or this monitor on a different computer. If it makes same noise on different machine or new monitor makes no noise on your machine you need a new one.

`Hi,
If the monitor is making the noise , the monitor circuit baord has gone bad.
If you have purchased the monitor on a seprate order from dell it would be covered under 3 yr warranty. If the same has been bought with the Dell computer , it would hold the computer warranty. would request you call the manufacturer.

Before you call Dell , you can try the following things
1. Disconnect call cables from the back of the montior
2. Press the power button a couple of times in the front of the monitor to drain any resident charge
3. Reconnect the power cable
4. check if you see the monitor self test running and if the noise is still there with there

Thanks

Monitor clicks, pops, or makes other noises. Issue: Monitor clicks, pops, or makes other noises.
Cause: This issue could be caused by any of the below possibilities:

1. Monitor degaussing.
2. Monitor changing resolution.
3. Monitor syncing with the video card.
4. Monitor warming up.

Solution: Noise when turned on or off It is normal for standard computer CRT monitors to make a click, pop, crackle, hum, buzz, or other type of noises when they are first turned on or turned off.
Noise when monitor goes into standby mode When the monitor enters a "standby mode" or "power savings mode" this is similar to the monitor being turned off. It is completely normal for the monitor to make a noise when the monitor enters this mode.
Noise when opening Microsoft Windows or other operating system or when opening a game When a computer opens its operating system, for example, a computer opening Microsoft Windows or when a user runs a computer game it is very common that the monitor will need to switch its resolution of the operating system or game. When switching resolutions it is normal for the computer monitor to make some type of noise and/or for the computer monitor to flick or flash.
Noise during normal operation If the computer monitor click, pops, or flashes while it is being used this is not normal operation. It is very likely that the monitor may be failing or a component within the monitor has already failed and could also potentially be a fire hazard. We highly recommend that the monitor be repaired, replaced, and/or looked at by a qualified technician.
Additional information:

• See document CH000302 for additional information and other noises that may come from

make sure that the audio wire connected to the your monitor is fine or try 2 replace it and also makesure that the wire ome the main power which is connected 2 the switch or pc is fine and if necessary replace it i hope it works

LCD Monitor Shadow Effect
This problem is best described as the LCD monitor "Shadow Effect".
The solution to this is very simple. No software or hard ware changes required.
The cables that are connected to the LCD monitors are causing the problem. Its also called as electromagnetic noise or electrical noise.
Solution: Keep the two cables - (power cable and monitor display cable), that are connected to the LCD monitor as far away as possible with each other and also away from other electrical cables.
Thats it. Your shadow effect is fixed.
Thank you.

This could well be your refresh rate. Move your mouse pointer over any blank area of the screen and right click. Highlight and click on properties.Click on the settings tab, then on advanced then on to the monitor tab. You should see a setting for refresh rate eg. 75 Hertz. Change the refresh rate and the noise should disappear.

mcdevito75 here LCD, or liquid Crystal display, chances are the crackling is the inside liquid display trying to capture the in comming electricity to make a display picture. Remember even an LCD is nothing more than a light bulb, a very intricate light bulb but a light bulb, and you have light bulbs burn out when you put them on and almost never as the are on burning. Turning the monitor itself off won"t really save electricity or the monitor itself as, when you shut down the computer from Start (left side of screen) the monitors screen saver comes on for 10--20 minutes then goes off, at this point the electricity is at the monitors on/off switch and not going thru the monitor at all. If you turn the monitor off at it"s on/off switch, the sudden jump of electricity to the monitor from it"s on/off switch could hurt it, or even the switch. I have a friend who turns off the monitor also and that friend had a bad monitor in 3 years. I never turn my monitor off just the computer itself. I'd speak with a Radio Shack, Staples, Best Buy ETC. for more advise. Me I;d say leave the monitor on. Hope this helps.
