Having a problem with a new build. Thought I had a simple refresh rate/ sync problem: when running video/ animation I get faint horizontal lines that flicker up and down the screen. I tried messing with the refresh rates accross all resolutions- no help. switched out monitors - no help. bought a new graphics card- no help. re-installed all chipset drivers- no help. I tried to flash the bios but I got all sorts of error messages and no help. reverted to optimal bios settings- no help.
I have two more theories: 1. bad PCI-e slot?, 2. interference from MoBo /CPU fan?
these seem unlikely, but I'm out of ideas. any advice?
Hardware:
AMD 64 Phenom 9600 quad core 2.3GHz
MSI k92N2 platinum 750a SLI
(x2) BFG 250 GTS oc 1g (now running SLI)
(x2) 2Gb memory
750w corsair PS
OS: XP pro x64
