Subject: Re: green lines flicker on the screen
turned on the computer and no lines. after about 30 seconds they starte. I
wiggled the hdmi cord but that had no effect on anything. I then considered
that maybe the card unseated itself somehow so I took the card out and put
it back in and turned the computer on and cooked an egg but the lines
didn't start flickering again. Thanks for spurring me on guys!
