While moving the whole lot onto a different circuit might be a useful
test, putting half a system on one and the rest on another, wouldn't be
such a good idea.  Particularly if you have wiring faults.

I'd be inclined to think that the original fault is the sort of thing
commonly seen when appliances are connected together that are running on
different circuits.  e.g. You plug your stereo amplifier into the
computer, and suddenly you get hum loops.

It's also indicative of a faulty power supply inside the monitor.  You
could test this by changing screen modes, to one with a different
vertical refresh rate.  If the noise bars, now, rapidly move through the
picture, that points the finger further in the direction on the monitor
being faulty.
