I saw several possibilities: 1. Your monitor start to broke 2. Your connection between monitor and CPU might jam 3. Card inside CPU who related with monitor got dirty or possibly start to broke. Do some check please Happy lotters

What causes your monitor to broke? What is the CPU?

If you ask really nicely you may be able to borrow a monitor from a friend. If the jumping problem goes away then you have faulty monitor. In the UK it costs more to repair than to buy new so there are no repair shops anymore. If the jumping problem is still there on the new monitor then it may be the graphics card on your PC. Try to first re-install the driver for the card. It may be corrupted. If that is no good then it is time to buy a new card. Finally, check if a big speaker is close to the monitor. The big magnets in a speaker can distort a cathode ray monitor.

I have miniature speakers that were made for computers. The portable kind. I took your advice and moved the speakers away from the monitor. Well see what happens from there. Thanks, smacksman
