Have had the HP w19ev monitor for just over 2 years now, and over the last 2 weeks have noticed that when the monitor boots into windows sometimes the display on the monitor will have a shimmering effect, like the old effect you would get on old CTR monitors when your mobile phone used to ring!?

If doesnt seem to happen in the boot up process just as soon as windows is displayed. If i bring up the OSD, that displays fine without shimmering, but the desktop underneith it will however. To sort the problem out, i either turn the monitor off for 10 seconds, or go into the OSD and select 'Auto' screen setup, and it fixes the problem!!

Now i have recently put this GFX card (8800GT) into this system, was in my other computer for about a year without this problem what so ever. So is it the monitor, vga cable or gfx card thats causing this shimmering problem??
