I've had this monitor for about a year now and never had a problem. Heck it only started doing this when I plugged it into the new PC I just built not even a week ago.

Here's a short video: http://rapidshare.com/files/125964523/MOV01884.MPG.html

Can anyone tell me how to fix this? The monitor is running on 75 Hertz. And I've looked through the Nvidia control panel and nothing really seemed to fix it. If I unplug the DVI connection or connect the monitor to the other DVI connection in my 9600 GSO it temporarily goes away for about 15-30 seconds then the lines come back.

Also it doesn't do it if I plug the monitor into another PC.
 
I suggest your card is bad. Please confirm that the other PC (your SAGER???) where you say the monitor works OK is also a DVI connection running the SAME resolution and the SAME Refresh.

Also what are the card models. Your sig lists a 7800GTX
 
ASUS EN9600GSO TOP/HTDP/384M GeForce 9600 GSO 384MB 192-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Supported Video Card - Retail - $109.99
is what I have now.

And I tested it with an Asus eeepc. The monitor runs on a VGA connection so for the 9600 gso I had to use the dvi to vga converter. For the asus it was a straight plugin. Not sure what refresh rate the eeepc is running.
When I run the AGM monitor as an external monitor on the asus eeepc at 1440x900 it runs fine. When I run it on 1440x900 on the desktop it has the horizontal lines.
 
OK so is your monitor is a CRT and not an LCD. If so make sure your new machine isn't so close that there is possible magnetic interference from the fan. I've had that happen to me with CRTs. also see if you have vertical/horizontal controls that might be tweaked.

I've never really used a VGA adapter on the DVI outputs myself. It is possible (though not real likely that the adapter cable combo could be the problem.

Can you can borrow an LCD with a DVI in to see if the new card works with that.

And it doesn't have the horizontal bars if I use my asus eeepc to set it up as a secondary monitor. When I plug it back into the desktop machine it runs fine for like 3 minutes then the bars come back. If I change it from 75 hertz to 60 or some other ranges in between it will stop showing the bars for a few minutes as I said before but they come back.

Could it be a driver issue?
