Default other electrical appliances interfering w compute rmonitor - how to troubleshoot

It is at least 10 feet away.

Funny thing is, I'd swear this problem did not exist when I first moved
in, and cannot recall it happening prior to the summer. The LCD tv is even
further away.

Sounds like magnetic interference. Try moving the CRT at least 10 feet
away from every other unit and see what happens. If that eliminates the
problem, then one by one see just how close the units can be without
causing problems -- magnetic fields fall off very quickly with distance;
much faster than distance^2.

I have a small floor fan that gives my CRT the shakes at nearly four
feet, but presents no problem at about six.
