step 1. buy new monitor

well it appears that you have a sun in your computer.
I actually don't think you'll be able to fix that without some serious re-arrangement. I don't know though. Thats just my thoughts.
It's definitely not a setting. I know that much.

I thought maybe it was something with drivers or the video card.

I don't know about that red line but I had with a single horizontal line of pixels that wouldn't light up I thought it was just the pixels were burnt out on the monitor, but after hooking up a different computer too it I realized it was the video card.

It goes away during startup for a short while and I've hooked up another monitor and it doesn't show up at all.

Either your monitor is shot or your video card is going out.

I doubt it's the video card I mean it doesn't show up on other monitors and it looks fine during startup, maybe it's something with the drivers or with vista.

The same happened to mine except mine was a yellow greenish bar. It just meant that the monitor was getting hot and dying. Plus it wasnt a flat screen, a very very old junk piece of monitor. In any case, Buy another one! Speaking of which, I'm having trouble with the flat screen monitor, buy tunring it off or on. It's one of those hard ass HP things where you gotta press the little icons instead of an actual button that you'll hear click.
