Monitor/ABCD Switch Trouble

[iwanthw2]

Everyting on my monitor seems blurred to the right, and I don't know how to fix it. The only thing that I've changed is that I've put in an ABCD Switch. It seems to work fine without it. Should I try getting a different calbe or something?

ok, if its a mechanical switch, thats your problem, and if thats the case, and you really want a monitor switch look around for good KVMs, belkin makes good ones

I don't think the fact that it is mechanical is the problem, because there's another one just like it in the room for the servers, and it works just fine. I think it's interference from the audio cable or something. I probably should have bought shielded monitor cables. :hmm:

Yes, I mean I didn't buy shielded calbes. The store didn't have any shielded male-male monitor cables, and they didn't know that they even had any of the ones that I got.
:err: Plus I didn't have 50 bucks to blow on shielded cables.

And you're probably not using a switch with very long, unshielded MONITOR calbes, are you? The cable that comes directly from your monitor should be shielded, as my monitor is as well as all the monitors in this room, at my school, etc.
