Color Fading.

**sangovese** · 01-16-2006, 09:40 PM

I recently upgraded my HP Pavillion with a ATI Radeon 9250 and now the monitor fades in and out of green. I also changed the Monitor to a Dell 17" flat screen. Does this sound like a monitor problem or a video card problem?

Any help would be appreciated.

Sounds like the monitor. Is it new or used? Have you tried a different monitor? or tried this one on a different system?

Well I have tried the monitor on another puter and it works fine on that puter, so it must either be the cable or the video card.
Any thoughts?

If this happens then I believe it may be the female connector going bad. If proper contact between the pins and the sockets isn't made then the signal won't carry.
