Depending what is meant by "Blurry"?
Degausing won't fix a "Focus" Fault in a monitor.. it is intendes for "Purity" Faults.. ie where you get coloured patches on the screen..
Now Blurry to me means OUT OF FOCUS.. it could also mean You can't see the Picture/ because it is all lines, it is so bright that black is grey anfd white is REALLY WHITE.. It could also be that the display has lost contrast range.. that is wher e the image is very "Flatt" black is grey and so is white, green, blue etc.,.
Any of these symptoms would need a service tech to repair.. Degaussing you can attempt yourself.. it won't harm anything (check also your OSD MEnu -they some time use a Crossed out horse shoe symbol) ..
HEy acid your probibly need a good resolder.. as this one may Dell monitors are like Sony and Philips TV's and Monitors.. Full of **** solder-joints .. this one could also be the EHT unit..
Cheers

LOL, I'll keep that in mind Und3ertak3r.

what I mean is, it will slowly start going out of focus, and the text will start getting fuzzy and I don't let it run to see how far it goes. I usually just shut off the monitor. I just start happening two weeks ago.

Without looking at it I can only say this, either there is a singal from the video card that starts to get weak (meaning the video card is slowly dying on you) or the monitor has a componet that is going. Now you say you shut it off and turn it back on and it's fine, would lead me to believe it's the monitor (because the video card is always pumping out a signal even when you would turn your monitor off while the computer is running). You've taken any possible mag field out of the works, so that's not your problem. ???
Now it's sad Dell won't be of much help, seeing as you didn't get it too long ago. And there is no real "brand name" on the monitor except for Dell, so no matter what you would be told to talk to Dell before the company who built it would probably talk to you.
So really I have nothing more I can really offer you for support, those are the facts.

I have a Nvidia GeForce3 64 MB Card. I'll check that.
I will also run my laptop off my monitor for a day and see if that helps any.
