Some monitors have a very thin line that runs across the screen. Mine has two. The monitor documentation explained it.

Mephisto, Is it a laptop or a desktop? Flat panel or CRT screen? You could try changing resolution by right clicking on the desktop and going to properties, settings, to see if that eliminates the line. If so, it is the video card and not the screen. D.Plen

Usually an entire line artifact is the result of the video card. It could have a bad memory row. There is a smaller possiblility that you have row based monitor, like Sony trinitron, and are using a video mode that just skips over that row (because it wasn't designed with the same number of pixel rows that you are asking it to display). In such as case a different video mode would be the answer. There is a different set of problems that occur with LCD screens. TP
