I wasn't suggesting that she plugged the video connector in the wrong hole (an impossible feat) I was thinking that perhaps her video connector got jiggled or she is getting interference. My sister had a monitor that would drop a signal if you fiddled with the video connection making the screen yellow and very dim. The way to fix this was to simply reconnect the video connector.

Once I was working on a friends computer that had a very pronounced flicker. I spent 20 minutes trying to adjust the refresh all the while getting a terrific headache from looking at the screen. Turns out it was caused by a window fan behind the monitor.

The way I figure it there is nothing worse than spending half an hour waiting for tech support only to discover that all you have wrong is a loose connection.
