I didn't want to post anything until I had given it time to become I have the SAME exact problem with my 1084 monitor, but I leave it flat all the time. I don't think the problem results from the stand. My incredibly non-technical theory about why MY monitor doesn't behave is that when I use interlace mode constantly whenever I turn on the computer, the monitor will behave. But once I go and play a game, or otherwise use the x200 mode, then when I come back the 1084 has seem to have "forgotten" how to use interlace mode. But I'm still VERY pleased that I can use the interlace mode on my 1084 monitor, rather than having to buy another monitor just for that purpose.... -Brandon!
