Mouse/Text Ghosting
« on: January 07, 2012, 04:27:41 PM »
Hi,

I recently switched my computer from a dvi connection to a vga connection (hooked up a new one to dvi port in monitor). However, now there appears to be slight ghosting everywhere, very slight, but just enough to annoy me... anyone have any ideas what it could be?

Does it still do it when you unplug the HDMI lead from the monitor?

The (one of the) ground wire(s) from your VGA cable is not connected or one of the connectors is not mounted well.
Use/Try another VGA cable.
DVI or HDMI just has no analogue ghosting problems, but other pretty problems whith a bad connection. ;)
