Hi everyone, I've just purchased a dell u2312hm ips panel. I originally connected my pc to it via the dvi port and everything was swell. However, I had to use the dvi port for my ps3 and switched to displayport for my pc. The connection for my pc is as follows: AMD 7950(Latest Beta 13.3 drivers)>Mini DP adapter>DP>Monitor. My problem is that sometimes, whenever i restart my computer, a few white dots and flickers are visible across the screen. This can be resolved by unplugging the cable and plugging it back in. Everything works fine after that until I restart my computer again. This never happened when I was using the DVI cable. Can anyone suggest a fix?
