i dont know what happened. today when i turned my comp on... there were distortions appearing. they are only a few pixels thick and they run across the monitor horizontally, appearing every 10 seconds or so.... its like a thin band of monitor gets shifted to the side a few pixels, then returns to its normal position in a flash.
ive completely reformatted since then, to see if that would fix it somehow, but its still here!
also, at the same time this happened, i had a significant reduction in the performance of 3d applications like games.
these are my real sys specs below
overclocked: cpu, video card, RAM and recently ive been cranking the monitor frequency (old, crappy monitor)
AMD 1800+
Epox 8hka+
GeForce 4 4600
512MB PC 2100 DDR
40GB Western Digital HD
WinXP
