Fixed: Horizontal Lines on my LCD

I bought a Hanns G monitor on newegg about a month ago and I love it. There was, however, an weird glitch that would occur whenever there was a mostly gray image on the screen. If I were looking at a website or even a movie that had a significant amount gray in it, weird lines would appear on my screen. It were as if the monitor was becoming out of sync with my computer. After finding nothing on Google I decided to play around with fixing it more. It turns out that the solution was actually very simple:

Lower the contrast on my video card (not on the LCD itself) to 95% (or slightly lower than normal). This got rid of the lines instantly and changed the look of the image on the screen only very slightly.
