Hi Grant, |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
just a shot in the dark: |
| 19 |
The image looks to me as thos would be an analog instead of |
| 20 |
an digital problem. |
| 21 |
May be both propietary drivers switch to the highest possible |
| 22 |
data transfer rate and this triggers the problem. |
| 23 |
To check, whether this may be the problem: |
| 24 |
Instruct the driver to use either low resolution or low refresh |
| 25 |
rates. Check both. |
| 26 |
If the problem changes signifiently: Change the cables. |
| 27 |
May be only a pluf is not inserted correctly. |
| 28 |
Addtionally you can move the cables arround to see whether |
| 29 |
this will change the shadows around the cursor in any way... |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
Good luck! :) |
| 32 |
Best regards |
