J.C. is there a snapping or arching sound while these lightning like flashes occur? This could be a high voltage power supply problem. Does the picture collapse vertically or horizontally while the flash occurs? This could be one of the drive oscillators circuitry breaking down, like a dielectric of a coil, transformer, who knows for sure. One thing is certain, it will get worse and eventually leave you without a picture. The time frame is anyones guess. I have a monitor that snaps and the picture goes dim then returns within a second or two. It happens sporadically, 0 - 3 times a day. Almost a year now since it started.

My solution: sit in front of the monitor, open wallet and chant "You can be replaced..." to appease the monitor Gods. ;-)

Regards,
Nick
