Sorry to hear about your illness. The alignment problems and "jaggies"
can be caused by dirt under the screen. Use a business card and run it
around the screen edge to try to dislodge dirt that may be trapped there.
If this works, you're in the clear. If not, I'm afraid that you have a
hardware problem that requires opening the Newt. Others on this list can
chime in if this is the case.
