Hi

The past couple of weeks my display started flickering intermittently,
probably around 50% of the time. A reboot doesn’t make any
difference, it just seem to flicker whenever it feels like it. I’ve
tried swapping monitors and switching from my Geforce 2 to the onboard
graphics card too, but neither made any difference.

Any ideas?

Ian

p.s. as I typed this it stopped flickering, will probably start again
in a few minutes :evil:

Make sure the cable is securely attached to the monitor (some are
permanently attached, some are not) and that the power cable from monitor to
power source is secure.

Since you say it's on more than one monitor and more than one graphics card,
is the PSU in the PC OK? Sufficient wattage?
