Guest Scottishlass Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 Hope someone can help me. My Screen has been flickering for the last week and its driving me insane! It looks like lots of lines flickering. I have refreshed the screen rate and that helped a little but then it just went back to flickering. I have checked the cables and they are fine. I tried the monitor on a different computer and it flickered on that also. Does anyone know what my problem is and how I can fix this. I also tried to restore my computer and it kept saying it was unable to do so. Thanking you in advance.

If the monitor behaves the same way - badly - on two systems, it has nothing to do with the systems. The monitor hardware is failing, and this can't be fixed in software. > Does anyone > know what my problem is Your problem is that your monitor is failing. > and how I can fix this. These days, it's often cheaper to replace monitors than repair them. > I also tried to restore my > computer and it kept saying it was unable to do so. Thanking you in > advance. System restore won't have anything to do with this monitor problem. But, try booting into Safe Mode and running System Restore from there. HTH -pk >

If the monitor does the same thing on different systems then the problem is the monitor. -- Xandros "Scottishlass" <Scottishlass@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:43272D87-C019-40DA-8366-96C8A3004D85@microsoft.com... > Hope someone can help me.
