Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)
There are two thin (around 2 pixels tall) black lines on the bottom of my screen. One thin line is about 1 1/2 inches up from the bottom and the other thin line is about 3 inches up from the bottom of the screen. They arent completely black, they are translucent, i can barely notice them when there is a bright color on the back of it but when the background is dark their wasy to notice. Ive tried resetting and checking all of my cables but nothing seems to work. I have a GT 1030, a Intel Core i-5 4460, and a MSI B85M-E45. Will these lines get bigger or are they a sign something failing? Do i need a new monitor?
