I just recieved a new monitor for Christmas. It's a Sceptre X9G-NagaV 19" LCD. It's my first LCD so I don't know what to expect. I am having real problems with DVI. When I am connected with my DVI cable the screen flashes on and off for a while then settles down. When it stops flashing I see horizontal black lines flashing up and down the screen. Also when I'm booting up the first boot screen with my video card info and the boot menu both don't show up. The screen goes blank for them. I don't have the same problems when using the VGA cable, except i get a couple of those black lines on a rare occasion. Is the monitor shot? Do i need a new cable (both the monitor and the video card have DVI-I ports and the cable is DVI-D)? Is my video card damaged? Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. I have the correct driver for the monitor and an updated driver for my video card (which is a PNY GeForce 6600). Thanks :grin:
