Monitor Burn-in/Ghosting problem

[James Noscoper]

I don't know if it is burn-in but when I open a program and it's like my monitor just copies it and it shows a ghosted version of it on the desktop or on something which makes it visible but when I switch my monitor off for about 8 hours it goes then I open a program and it will do it again. It only ghosts it in left half of my monitor and fades out towards the right ( it also makes the quality really back and have lines in the top left corner).

Dual monitors - AOC (Generic PnP) monitors
Processor - AMD FX(tm)-6100 Six-Core Processor 3.80 GHz
OS - Windows 7 64-bit

There shouldn't be generic PnP monitors, you sure you installed the graphic card drivers? and also did you install the chipset drivers? What are the total system specs?

I don't know if I have installed any drivers (how do I find out)

What are your total system specs? What graphic card you have? In the device manager is there any exclamation mark?

Download a program called Speccy here (https://www.piriform.com/speccy) install it and post the image of the main page or the very first page you recieve. Also try removing one monitor and only try one. Also try your monitors in another Pc or laptop or your friend's or family. post the results back here.

I don't have another pc to try it on.

Seems like a problem with the monitors. Try this remove one monitor and quickly open and closes the programs or maximize and minimize them and tell me what happens.

 

[James Noscoper]

it only does it on my right screen.

 

[goku1234567890]

Did you try the monitors separately? If it only does it on your right screen then that monitor is bad, because if it would have been the graphic card, the dual screen setup or something else then it will cause ghosting on both the screens.

 

[James Noscoper]

But I think it called burn-in and it keeps like "showing" a ghost version of the program.

 

[goku1234567890]

Yeah what i am trying to say is that problem is with the monitor.

 

[James Noscoper]

Yes ut how do I remove it, I though burn-in was just and logo print sort of thing not constanty printing every program I have open for more than 5 min open.

You can try this trick here (http://lifehacker.com/146469/remove-lcd-image-burn-in)

Or you can try this method. Download 2 images one complete white and one complete black. Save them anywhere and then select both and set them as wallpaper. Then go to the Personalize option in windows 7 (right mouse click on the desktop) then go to the Desktop Background and then edit the change every picture to 30 seconds. Leave it for a hour or so. See if that fixes it.

If it is a ghosting then it will be fixed but if it is Burn-in then you can't do anything to fix it.

The only problem is it screen saves on my left monitor not the right...

 

[goku1234567890]

Yes it could be that only one monitor is bad while the other one fine. Just try the steps i have provided and see if it solves your problem.

 

[James Noscoper]

What I am trying to say is that the screensaver only works with the left screen (the good one) and not the right, is there a way to change them round so it screensaver's both or just the broken one?
