Have you tried restarting your computer? I have never even heard of anything like that before... Also, is it a problem with your monitor, or your software? Try taking a screenshot of your desktop, and see if the black part appears on the screen shot or not. Just press print screen, and copy it into MS paint or something.

If you are using an LCD monitor, there might be something messed up with the magnetism of the screen. I really do not know how to fix it, but you should got to your local comp shop.
If it is a normal CRT monitor, there must be something defective inside of the projector. Try cleaning the spot first , and restarting, maybe that could be a problem.

It could be dead pixels if it is a LCD monitor. If there are more than 6 or so, contact the manufacturer and see if it can be replaced.

Thanks alot for the help. Since i Have a dell computer i called dell and they fixed it. Someone probaly put a magnet to the screen so they told me how to reset the monitor and it worked.
, and restarting, maybe that could be a problem.
