Video Card and Monitor Error #3
Error Message: You observe an image persistence or “burn-in” on your display/monitor.
What it means: You have left one image displaying on your screen for so long that you can still see the ghost image of it when you view another different image or turn the screen off.
What to do: With CRT screens, burn-in is permanent, just like TVs. This is why CRT users should always leave a screen saver enabled, and then go into standby mode after a given period of idleness. If you see burn-in on your LCD display do not panic as they are impervious to long term burn-in. All you have to do is leave the screen off for a while, and the ghost image will fade away slowly.

I read similar article also named Video Card and Monitor Error #3, and it was completely different. Personally, I agree with you more, because this article makes a little bit more sense for me
