I've been getting some discoloring/light scan lines on my pc...but here's the thing. One, they only show up on the right upper corner of the screen. Two, they completely disappear when I play actual games. I switched my HDMI cables, so it's not a cable issue. I'd have assumed the graphics card was the issue, but again, it only seems to show up that way on desktop apps and stuff like that. I don't think it could be the monitor since, again, it looks fine when I'm playing games. It's not a huge issue, especially since I was planning on upgrading graphics cards anyway, I'm just mildly confused at this.
Anyone's got any ideas?

Only thing I got is if it's an old style CRT monitor it could be a degaussing issue, but with the HDMI cable's being mentioned don't think that's the case.
Can always try a total removal and reinstall of your video drivers.

Not sure, but it sounds like the upper right corner is heating up more than the rest of the monitor for some reason. Why it doesn't happen during gameplay is beyond me though.

Same thing happen to me, kinda. Plug it into an old school monitor/desktop.

Well, that's what happens when you have sex with your computer.

Tried doing a fresh install of the drivers. Nothing. Same thing happen to me, kinda. Plug it into an old school monitor/desktop. Don't have an old school monitor with me, but I do have a TV. Strangely, the image also seems to be screwed up when I use the television in the exact bizarrely specific way, so I figure it has to be some kind of extremely weird graphics card issue. |

Two, they completely disappear when I play actual games. If the lines disappear depending on what software your computer runs, the problem sounds rooted in your graphics/video card driver. Try uninstalling the existing GPU driver and installing a freshly downloaded binary of your driver from the vender's website. |
