Wavy horizontal moving lines

Which I get only while playing games, mostly on darker backgrounds.
Sometimes they move, sometimes they just stop but they still remain visible.
I have changed since summer like 5-6 graphics cards, mobo, ram, psu, drivers etc... The lines never dissapeared.
I also hooked up my friends pc on my monitor with my own vga/dvi adater and guess what? There were no lines, and we have the same VGA. Dunno what is going on but I would really like them gone. I also forgot to mention that I tried different settings in Nvidia control panel and in game / video settings. I am using a vga compatible monitor with vga/dvi adapter cus GTX 460 which I'm currently using has dvi/hdmi out only (most of my previous graphics cards had dvi/hdmi outs so I always used the adapter.

Any suggestions how to get rid of this unpleasant visual curse? :rolleyes:
 
You already found the issue and you did not even realize it. Your monitor is going bad. reasoning: You already ruled out power, GPU, drivers, and RAM according to your post. You hook up a different monitor (your friend's) and the issue went away. That tells you right there it is a hardware issue in the monitor, not the system.
 
He said he hooked up his monitor on his friends computer and it didnt do it.

Since you tried 5-6 graphics cards, mobo, ram, psu, drivers etc and it still happens its hard to tell. Have you tried a different cable? Are you using a VGA cable with a VGA to DVI adapter? Like I said try a different cable.
