You need to look in the monitor specs for interlaced and non-interlaced 
modes. 

Just a couple of war stories:
WS1:Years ago a client of mine had an Osborne with an external monitor 
which used to quiver and quake. Took aluminum foil and shielded it, and 
that worked. 

WS2: An engineer I used to work with at Digital used to have a modem 
that would occasionally drop the connection. We traced it to a 
refrigerator in an adjacent room. If he brought the system upstairs it was 
fine. Even when it was downstairs and plugged into a different circuit he 
had the problem.
