Is this band similar to the line that you see when you record a CRT? Is it localized in the screen (does it happen all over the screen at once or in an area close to another computer)? Have you tried to replicate this using a magnet or something? I know that when I had a tower Peecee with a harddrive near the monitor's level, an area of the screen went crazy, it had pastel colors in that area like when you degauss.
