The screen keeps going crazy, I will show you a video of it later.

Also my specs are this http://uk.************.com/p/19n1k
And I have never overclocked anything and I just built my PC like 2 weeks ago. It has been flickering since last week and I can't find a real solution, please help and I also really appreciate it for reading this ^.^!
 
This may sound silly but around a year ago my screen started going mad. I thought the GPU was on it's last legs. Turned out to be a didn't screw the dvi cable in I took out the week before.

Also can you post a picture of it flickering?
 
Have you tried reseating your GPU? bigmac121 could also be onto something with loose cables.

How is it connected DVI?
 
One of our work laptops was going nuts this morning. Ran a virus scan and it cleaned a few things up, seems to be working ok for now. may or may not be related
 
Try removing it (the GPU), give it a bit of a clean and reinstall. Could try a Memory test to also rule that out.
 
I will try, I tryed replacing the GPU multiple times but I had no sucssess. Also when I run the stuff on safe mode everything seems to work fine.
 
Ya, I think, I will update it again, I want to fix this PC as soon as possible, I don't want my parents and brother seeing my PC is broken after spending £600. Quite a lot of money for education and gaming.
 
do u have a tv with an hdmi cable or vga port you could try, also another dvi cable you could try. To me it looks like a graphics card error as it only seems to start after the windows logo is gone, however i could be wrong
 
"Also when I run the stuff on safe mode everything seems to work fine"

Do you mean in "safe mode" everything OK? Did you update the drivers in safe mode?
 
I tried, I downloaded every single driver possible but I cannot update, it says the dection thing doesn't work or something. Please reply quickly.
 
Try taking the graphics card out of the lane (make sure to remove the thumb screws and push back the clip on the lane) and putting it back in.

Also try a different monitor (a TV would do) and a new cable.

e; Ignore that give me a minute.

Ok, open Device Manager, you then want to locate "Display Adapters", expand that and see if there is a warning sign there, it will be a yellow triangle with a "!" in it, if it's not there then that's good.

I tryed to use a HDMI cable but it showed no display, I don't have anything else but this 24 inch TV which I used on the PC for the week before the problem appeared.
