For about three years I have been plagued with a screen problem. The monitor image sometimes jumps rapidly up and down. This has made computer usage almost impossible. One puter 'expert' said it was a monitor problem. I changed monitor, actually twice. Still jumped. Another 'expert' said my computer had a bad mother board. I bought a new (refurbished) computer from him. Same problem still existed. Finally I got another new computer. No help, still a very jumpy picture. Am I frustrated? Yes. Had the ISP service tech out. He checked my lines and input. All OK but picture still jumpy. Finally, this a.m., I got smart. (took about three years to get there) I did a mental algorithm and came to the conclusion that after three monitors, three computers and line check the only constant had been my mouse. Had a new one on hand. Switched out and now problem is gone. Old one going in trash right now.
