Changing the refresh rate is worth a shot. If you're in Windows XP, right click on the desktop, choose Properties, click the Settings tab, click the Advanced button, then there should be a Monitor tab, click it and there's a Screen Refresh rate. Different Windows OSes have it in similar places. It's been a while since I had a CRT but I'd typically set it as high as I could while still having the picture look good, 120hz I think.

Try to De-Gauss it. Somewhere in the menu items for the monitor (is there a menu button actually on the monitor?) it should offer to do this.

What about the refresh rate from the computer? Try to alter that in graphics properties (what OS?) Any change?

Also, is it a new issue?

yes, De-Gaussing your monitor as said by Mr outsideblasts will correct this problem. I too had it before and it is now gone.
