I've had this trouble with several old amiga monitors. Had to do with cracked
cold solder joints and/or a bad flyback transformer. Only a matter of time
until it completely fries itself. You might also start to hear snaps and
crackles coming from your monitor with the display anomilies. Repairs in my
experience are far more costly than a new monitor, unless you can do them
yourself with scavanged parts.
