I'm having more problems with my monochrome monitor again.  A few weeks
ago my monitor "died".  Luckily a few people on the network informed
me that all I had to do was to replace several diodes.  I did that
and it has worked fine.

A few days ago the picture started to "shake".  The entire screen
vibrates, with the left side being more noticeable.

I didn't replace the diodes in the monitor with the *exact* diodes,
but the salesperson at the electronics shop said the ones I have
will work.  I think the differene is that the ones I'm using now
have a higher voltage rating (??).

Has anybody seen this problem?  Is there a fix, or do I need to buy
another monitor?

Thanks in advance.
