By any chance is your keyboard (or mouse) connected in some interesting way? Like wireless, through KVM switch, USB, or anything else other than PS/2 cable? I have seen somewhat similar problems with input static. And see below...

No, nothing like that.

If your Multisync is like some of mine it has dual input capability. Sometimes when changing modes (such as after logout) the monitor gets wedged. Next time you see it try power cycling the monitor, even shutting down and pulling the plug to force a reboot might be needed.

Hmm, I haven't actually tried a pull-the-plug on the monitor. (I did use the power switch, but maybe that isn't enough). I'll try it, thanks for the suggestion ...

Mine occasionally change to reading the "other" inputs, if you have input selection you might try that. Or just another monitor, to see if the monitor is in any way the culprit.
