Strange problem with my Dell 2407

Ok,

I have a duel setup, Dell 2407 & Viewsonic 912. Been running for months no problems at all.

Now just a few weeks ago (couldnt tell you exactly). Now and again my Dell picture keeps, wall all I can say is flashing.

As is you pulled the cable out for a slip second. I have checked all the cables.

Now if it was my graphics card wouldnt both screens start to do it.

Has anyone else had this type of problem.

Thanx

Have you tried a different graphics card? Plugged them in one at a time etc? You need to isolate the problem.

Wish I was rich enough to own a spare graphics card.

Could try the cable round the other way, and just have the dell on for a bit. (plugged in).

Try running just the dell and see what happens. Have you a friend / family with a comp you could borrow? I wouldn't want to RMA it without knowing its goosed first.

Ok just got the Dell pluged in, and everything seems fine. None of the odd flashing that happens.

So could it be the Card.

Now I have the other monitor pluged in aswell, and its started again.
