    Well, just recently i've noticed that anything colourful displayed through my monitor is like motion blurred. For example the text, the icons, the emoticons, everything has a motion blur to it. Even my desktop icons. Does anyone know why this is happening and how i can fix it? Thanks. Btw im using an HP w1907 desktop monitor.

    I had this happen one time after loading several games/closing them rapidly...all I did was hit the auto-adjust thing on my monitor and it fixed it, not sure if thats whats up with yours, but give it a try.

    Nope. it didn't fall, i just turned in on today to see this, however it was a bit blurry before but nothing that bothered me that much, but this really annoys me. And yes, i can do a print screen its all motion blurred, here it is.

    And yes i already tried the Auto Adjustment, it doesn't work.

    Looks fine on here.

    How old is your monitor?

    My guess is bad cables....

    Try replacing the cables and see what happens.

    Its fixed now thanks anyway, it was because i left my monitor on for a month, which probably killed it. After a few hours of rest, my monitor is back to normal. :)
