More Information

I am running the following....
Athlon 64 3500+
GeForce 7800 GT 256 mb
PCI Express x16
Forceware Version 84.21
video BIOS version 5.70.02.13.07
Viewsonic VA1912w
2 Gigs ram
Gigabyte nForce 4 Mobo
Win XP Pro SP2

This Vid board will "flash" just like lightening at different times while I am in WOW or Civ IV or BF2 etc. Doesn't do it in anything else but while I am in games. Odd effect... really looks like lightening on different parts of the screen... varies.

BFG acts like they never heard of such a thing and all they can talk about is swapping out monitors. I've done that and this Viewsonic that I just got is a good monitor.

Any ideas about this? Just updated to the latest forceware drivers too.

Thanks!
