I have the same monitor. Don't have the same problem, though. It may be just the picture tube warming up, which would explain why the chill spray doesn't do anything. Although 10 minutes seems like an awfully long time for tube warm-up. Mine gets to full size, and warmed up in about 15 seconds. It's from 1992 (or93). I have noticed, however, that since I got it, the picture is slowly shrinking. When new, I could adjust both horizontal and vertical, when maxed out, would be past the edges of the screen. Now, when I max out the horiz. control, I can only get it to about 1/2 - 3/4" from each side of the screen. The vertical can still go off the screen. Other than that, there are no problems (no pincushion, distortion etc). The monitor is very low hours. It was used probably about 3-4 hours a week, if that, until about 4 months ago. Now it's used about 3-4 hours a day. The problem started, however, when being used 3-4 hrs. a week. ThAnX, -- -Jason (roblwill(a)usaor.net) ICQ#-1730318 ---------- <classiccmp(a)u.washington.edu>
