Hi Guys

I need some help, I have 2 monitor's an Alienware AW2310 & Samsung SM2433. I have the XFX 5870 GFX and wanted to run both monitors. plugged both into the DVI ports in GFX card.... but the samsung flickers all the time, no matter what resolution I put it on.....

Anyone have any ideas??

Cheers
Hay

What speed is your 5870 running at in 2D mode, What drivers are you using, it maybe too low, you can either create a profile in CCC and then alter the profile config to up the speed, or install MSI Afterburner to do it ...

What happens if you try the samsung on its own? Also try swapping the monitor dvi connections.

Have tried changing the cables, does exactly the same

Samsung on its own is fine
Alienware on its own is fine

Together Samsung flickers
