How Do You Degauss A Computer Monitor?
Degaussing a computer monitor clears electromagnetic buildup from the screen. Although it is hardly ever necessary, degaussing can sometimes slightly improve picture quality. • Simply turn the monitor off and turn it back on. Most modern monitors degauss themselves automatically each time they are powered on. When the monitor is turned on, you should hear a distinctive “dwoing” sound. If you hear no sound when you turn the unit on, it may not degauss itself automatically. If that is the case, proceed to the next step. Look for a button labeled DEGAUSS. This may be combined on an EXIT button. Bring up the on-screen menu, locate the degauss option (the ohm icon), and select it. You should now hear the degaussing noise, and the screen will probably display a brief burst of color.
