Is this a tube monitor or an LCD? It could be a matter of adjusting the resolution of the display.
Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

You could try degaussing it. Is there a button with a crossed out magnet?

Okay, gave that a shot, still fuzzy.

Lower the resolution you are running at by one notch. If it is at 1280x1024 drop it to 1024x768.

It was a longshot, but at least it probably made a nifty sound.

Lower the resolution you are running at by one notch.
It is now at 800 x 600 or whatever.
Big...and still fuzzy.
I think it's the monitor itself, now.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Once I had a cat throw up into my monitor, and the monitor got really dim and fuzzy.
Did you (or someone else) get vomit in your monitor?

Dunno. I'm at a new desk. I suppose it's possible.
Doesn't smell like vomit, though.

That does sound like the monitor. You can hook it up to another computer to make sure if that is a possibility, but I would be shocked if it wasn't the monitor.
