that is a strange problem. Are all of the lines in the game slanted like that too?

Try turning down the brightness or contrast on the monitor chassis. Could be blooming?

well i cleaned the brightness and contrast pots and re adjusted them. still no luck. i wonder if it is the Y amplification. has anyone ever adjusted this on this type of monitor. i tried to adjust but they were siliconed (lack of a better word) in place.
thanks

John with your monitor success, have you have adjusted the x or y amplication pots. is there a reason why there are 2 pots for each?

i think the tech replaced the entire board, but i will email him to see if it was a specific part that went bad or he just swapped it out.
