| 433881 | 2006-02-26 05:13:00 | Welcome! Try another monitor video cable before you can then start blaming the video adapter. Changing monitors was a good idea, at least you now have eliminated that as a source. |

| 433882 | 2006-02-26 18:47:00 | used different cables with the other monitor and still no joy, whats the deal with the video adaptor? | loco (9869) | ||
| 433883 | 2006-02-26 18:53:00 | Also try moving the whole system to another part of the room (or even another room)... another power-point or another position could make a difference. Mike. |

| 433885 | 2006-02-27 08:25:00 | Do you mean you get ghosting when you drag around windows, or the mouse cursor? In which case, have a look at the Task Manager (right-click taskbar > Task Manager) and see what the CPU load shows. Or do you mean a static object appears to have a ghosting effect? | Jen (38) | ||
| 433886 | 2006-02-28 07:40:00 | the mouse cursor is the only thing that does not shadow, window, pics and text all shadow. :( | loco (9869) | ||
| 433887 | 2006-02-28 08:09:00 | Do a screen save of the desktop, or part thereof, showing the problem,convert it to a jpg, and post to here: imagef1.net.nz Post the link to here so we can look at the problem. Don't forget that Alt/prnt scrn will save a window open on the desktop, we need a good illustration of the problem with the mouse cursor in the picture. |

| 433888 | 2006-02-28 19:20:00 | I sometimes get ghosting on my crt while playing games. Not often enough for me to be able to try out different cables etc though, because it disappears after a while. Annoying while it happens though. | mejobloggs (264) | ||
| 433889 | 2006-02-28 19:25:00 | Do a screen save of the desktop,Uh, that won't work if its a hardware problem... and possibly won't work if its a software problem - it'll only work if the computer has told it to happen... But a digital photo of the screen might work. Mike. |
