Is it virus or monitor problem?

I keep seeing a bar in the middle of the screen trying to adjust the brightness/contrast of the monitor. It keeps doing it randomly and the value will go from 0 to 100 or vice versa. I suspect it is a virus but anti virus program (avast) fails to detect it. Any idea what is happening?

Possible virus try downloading AVG and running a scan with the free version it will catch more than avast and leave it in for a while as it has a resident shield that will catch something trying to run without permission that should take care of a virus problem . If the problem continues try using another monitor . good luck

Try that monitor in another comp just to confirm if the monitor is the problem. If it works well from another machine, then the problem could be your computer. If it behaves the same in the 2nd comp, then your monitor might be the problem.



It is always good to confirm if you have the right display drivers in your comp. You might need to go to the net to update the ones you already have.



Also if you have installed any new software or hardware of late, uninstall and see how the comp behaves- hardware or software changes sometimes cause such problems.
There is no virus that can adjust the brightness and contrast of the monitor. Probably it's just the menu buttons on your monitor being loose and/or having problems.
