208900 2004-01-21 00:29:00 Hello every one

Just in the last day or so my new Philps 170 B monitor (which I got for my birthday) jumping only slightly & flecking the corners and it the middle only slightly (it is doing this as I typed this post) and it is only happing every few min’s aprox

Could it be there is something wrong with the refresh rate??

Also yesterday I got a new motherboard/CPU

It is a pain!

Any ideas????

208903 2004-01-21 00:50:00 well your refresh rate is 60hz ....no wonder its a bit jumpy. try setting it to optimal or at least 75hz. tweak'e (174)
208904 2004-01-21 01:35:00 Also check that connections are solid. mikebartnz (21)

That was the culprit in my office at work.

Let us know how you get on....
