lines on monitors

[Thermite Paste]

ive got two computers in my room, one setup on dual monitors, and another on a single monitor. ive got a 17" crt and a 15" crt on one, and another 15" on the other. the problem is, i have a single line on each of the 15" crts that starts at the bottom in one and the top in the other and moves to the opposite side of the screen. its not a loose connection, because moving around the wires doesnt help. Anyone know whats wrong?

another thing: theyre all on one desk.

turn off one of the monitors and see if u still get the lines. make sure there are no lamps or whatever right next to the monitors.

if i turn off one, the other stops getting lines. also, i have a lamp on top of one of them, but when i turn it off it doesnt affect anything.

Sound like a possible shielding problem. Move them apart, or put a metal sheet between them.
