hi, i am having this really annoying problem with my display receantly, but unfortunately i dont remember for how long exactly, so i cannot guess from where could it come, i tried everything that sounds reasonable to couse it, but no luck... My display flickers (becoumes black for 1-2 seconds) occasionally when certain actions are made while working with windows, doing all kind of stuff, like deleting files, running properities on some file with Alt+Enter, running properities of the display, and during startup after the welcome screen. i cant tell exactly when does it flicker most, couse there is no pattern, it flickers when it likes... anyone any idea why could it be. My PC is AMD 3000+ 1GBram, GeForce6150 with latest display drivers 91.47forceware. 10x in advance

Hi Roise_r, If this happens randomly then have you tried the simple things first. Make sure the cables are firmly seated between the display and the PC and also the power cord. Is the graphix adapter an on borad one or stand alone. If stand alone it may be worth opening up the case and removing from it's slot, cleaning the contacts with a pencil eraser and re seating. If that doesn't work it may be worth uninstalling the graphix drivers and then reinstalling them just in case there is something corrupt ther. Whatever happens good luck.
