I've found some very old threads on this, but I've not found anything recent. Hoping its -not- what I'm reading, but we'll see.
When I power up my machine, just after the Windows logo & right before Windows launch, I sometimes (not always) get this brief (fractions of a second) screen (usually just a line along the bottom of my screen, never full-screen) of what looks to be static with random lines of color.
New one on me.
All the parts are new, so I'm worried something is on the verge of going bad out of the box.
I've run all kinds of system & graphics tests & everything appears to work fine, for now.
But the screen worries me. Never seen it before...
My current setup:
Asus Maximus Hero VIII
GSkill 3200 Trident 16bg
i5 6600K
Evga 970 GTX FTW+
Evga 750W Gold
Corsair H80i GT Cooler
Samsung EVO 250gb & 500gb SSD

Previous to this I was having problems with some firmware updates for the Mobo & was experiencing severe system hangs on shutdown.
I was forced to disable the updates to the Mobo & deactivate several Asus Startup Services. So far -that- seems to have done the trick, but I may consider wiping & installing fresh (again), should that become necessary.
-
And of course, as I'm powering up machine as I'm typing this, I'm getting an error on Windows Update:
"Failure Converting Windows Update. Reverting Changes."
Man, this is going to be a long day...
