whenever I start my windows from cold boot

my monitor screen will show a bit to the left ... it will then slowly "creeping" its way to the normal setting i set it to

its kind of annoying cause I dont know what is wrong with it

do you think it is the bios that cause the problem?

Everytime I feel the monitor need to warm up before i can use it :(

Dont think it would be the bios atall?
How old is the monitor and have you tried updataing or reinstalling you current display drivers!?

new 17" samsung flat crt

and the new driver is 43.45 for my ti4200

It happens when I use 41.09 and when i install this new driver it is still the same

I've upgraded my gpu bios so I think maybe it is something wrong with it but I cant really find an old version of the BIOS!

If it aint broke, don't fix it.

As long as it displays properly once into windows I think you're better off living with it... I've dealt with plenty of weirdo issues in my time and have subsequently driven myself nuts over them :D

When you say from a cold boot, is the monitor warmed up or has it been off for awhile. because I am thinking it might be the monitor warming up. if the monitor is already warm when this happens, you can disregard the earlier comment

Yes
it only happen when I cold boot and sometimes when I wake from Stand By

after it "Warm Up" ,it will dont have any problem even I restart it

I can see the insanity settling over you at this very moment.

I had a viewsonic p225f 22" CRT, it did the same thing... couldn't figure it out, I just ignored it. When I first got it i drove myself crazy settin it to the right, then it would creep over, and i'd set it back, just leave it. it only takes 2-3 minutes anyway, and its not like its a couple of inches...
