Monitor vertical lines

When I ran Norton Virus Scan, the scan stopped when checking mswebdvd.dll. I
had to force a shutdown. After booting again, the monitor now shows
vertical lines (~1/2 inch wide).

The monitor is ok. I connected to my laptop.

Now what? Thanks for your suggestions.

That file is used by DirectX

Start | Run <type in>
DXDIAG
<enter>

Look for errors, test the display

Last resort, delete the file if you can and reinstall Directx.
