I have been having some "trouble" for a while, and would finally like to check it out.  I have a IIci with a Sony CPD1304 multiscanning monitor.  It seems the left side of my screen is slightly darker than the rights side, for no apparent reason - I can see it readily with a white screen when I turn down the contrast enough.
        
I thought it might be the cable, so I bought a new cable from a different dealer - no solution.  I thought it might be the monitor, so I got that exchanged, but the problem persists.  The only other conclusion I can come to is that there's something wrong with my IIci.
        
Has anybody every run into this problem before, or anything similar?  Is there anything I can check myself before hauling my IIci down to the dealer?  When normally using the Mac at normal contrast and brightness levels, the problem manifests itself as a small "bar" down the middle of the screen (about the width of 3 characters that appears lighter than the rest of the screen.  Can anyone offer any suggestions?  Thanks...
