Found one website that advised creating a white gif and using that as a screen saver for at least several days to clean up the screen, but they say some monitors are irreparably damaged and can&#8217;t be fixed.  I got this Dell monitor around last Christmas.  It wasn&#8217;t exactly cheap, not terribly expensive either, but I read many many glowing recommendations on how great it was for graphics and I expected it to last a while. It began discoloring up at the top a little while back and now suddenly has some kind of gray bar after-image that&#8217;s nearly 3\/4&#8217;s of an inch wide and two inches from the left frame of the screen, but none of these developments looks like a regular kind of after-image.  So I&#8217;m not very hopeful about the white gif cleaning up.  If it does, great.  If it doesn&#8217;t then it&#8217;s come to the point I&#8217;m going to need to check with Dell and see if they can replace or repair, even if it means an extended time of not being able to use the computer.<\/p>\n<p>I had never heard of LCD after-image until mine became discolored; had thought there was no such thing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve been creating troubles with my blog.
