Horizontal Wavy Lines on Asus VK221D 22" LCD Monitor

I have an Asus VK221D 22" monitor. I don't recall seeing these horizontal wavy lines when I first setup this monitor a few months ago, but it may have been there. Anyways I see these horizontal wavy lines from the left to the right of the screen. It's not very noticeable unless you have a solid color background.

"Never buy LCD displays without digital interfaces! I never understand why even today VGA only models show up. DVI should be the minimum supported interface. Good luck your 9800GT has VGA too, I would not equip a card like that with VGA (guess you got a converter plug with it).
But with VGA, the only thing to do is to minimize interference.

Use all grounded plugs and sockets
Use the shortes VGA cable possible,
preferably with a magnet around the
cable at one end. No loops in it.
Use 60Hz as refresh rate, and nothing
else."

I have the Asus and I realized the power cord for my laptop was causing the issue, try unplugging the laptop and run on battery power, if this is the cause you will have to try using 3 to 2 plug converter or remove the ground from the plug. However still plug the computer into a surge protector for safe keepings.
