Usually a shrinking or reduced display size is caused by the output of the main power supply in the monitor starting to have a decreased output voltage. This means that the scan amplifiers are not having enough supply to work to their full output.

Hi John.. There are several threads about BLOGing software going.. i started one in fact beifre this one.. I asked if there was...

The power supply is common to the complete monitor. The scan amplifiers are the most sensitive to any decrease of the power supply output. The video processing, and other functioning circuits mainly use lower supply voltages than the scan amplifiers. These lower voltages are usually down regulated from the main supply and thus, unless the main power supply output is greatly reduced, these will not be easily effected. The high voltage, or anode voltage supply is re-generated and highly regulated, and also may not be effected, until the main supply output is greatly reduced.

The main cause of this type of power supply performance loss is due to the electrolytic filter, coupling, and bypbutt capacitors going high in their ESR ratings. There are also many other types of components that can deteriate in their performance, and also cause these types of problems.

Good article about capacitor ESR:

An experienced monitor service tech, can analyse the power supply and scan circuits for any performance loss, and service them as required. The question at this point, would be the cost of such a repair being worth it. The labour and the parts can come out to a fair amount of dollars, in relation to the monitor replacement cost.

Considering the age of the monitor, after it has been serviced, there is no guarantee of how much longer it may last until there is another type of failure.

I noticed that my diplay is shrinking, I have a black border thats about 1-4 inch around the entire screen, no one has mess with the settings, I tried to adjust can't get rid of the border. I checked the display in the control panel its set to 800x600 for 17 in monitor.

Any ideas not sure of the age of the computer 4-5 yrs old, would a video card cause this problem?

Thanks

Tom
