These are vertical retrace lines and I am having the same problem. Check my post 'P991 problem' on 04/13/06. Let me know if you find a fix for this. zonie

The only thing my P991 monitor required was an adjustment of the G2 voltage on the CRT to restore it to almost perfect working condition. It fixed the background tint, visible vertical retrace lines, and excessive brightness.

Unfortunately, it can only be done with WinDas since there are no electrical adjustments on the monitor. If it looks too complicated for you, I'd try to find a somebody who could get WinDas assembled and the adaptor cable is less than $20 on ebay. You don't even have to take the covers off. It'd a shame to throw away a monitor that was top-of-the-line a about 5 years ago and would probably give you a few more years of service.

Godd luck,
