very odd monitor problem

Hi

I haven't touched the physical monitor controls (colour, contrast etc) but they're popping up ... I've got e.g. the contrast control coming up as I type now, and all the time. Thought must have caught one of the buttons, but when I actually did bring up the controls, all of them are being selected one at a time without me touching anything. Now luminace and temperatura are up on the screen as I type.

Is this a monitor problem or even spyware? Have run Adaware and it got rid of 3 bugs, but there was nothing out of the ordinary I could see with those (usual castelmedia etc).

Thanks, Cat

  • if you are talking about an external screen, then it sounds like a problem with the monitor buttons, try unplugging at the mains.

    Unlikely to be spyware, unplug the monitor from the PC to find out.
    Ever get the feeling you are wasting your time? :rolleyes:

    Mnay thanks. All sorted now ... stopped by itself before unplugging etc. Will unplug if it happens again.

    Cheers, Cat
