Help!! Before I go blind. ( get your mind out of the pubescent gutter ) Here is the problem.
Usually about twice a day my monitor hear at work is overcome with diagonal waves. Not talking tsunamis, but severe enough to surf on. To temporarily correct the problem, I change the display-timing mode for the video card. (Nvida GeForce 2 MX) Most of the times, going from fixed aspect ratio to auto detect, or visa versa clears things up. For a while. There are times when either discrete or coordinated mode is most effective.
Sometimes after changing the setting the large waves go away but then I get compact diagonals coming from the other direction or the feeling the screen is pulsating so rapidly that I’m not quite sure that it is.
Changing monitors does not help. The “IT” here says they have installed a filter (RF ?) on the power supply thinking the problem may be relater to equipment in the plant. I have also been told that they have tried swapping video cards as well, but as of late I have not had much trust in the Idiot Twits around here.
Anybody got any Ideas? Pouring my coffee into the monitor or CPU has not helped the machine as much as it has helped me.
Thanks,
Tim
