I got a computer and monitor from my sister and seem to have a problem with monitor freezing and flickering.
Specs:
Dell 1704FPT Flat Panel monitor
Compaq Presario SR1130NX
AMD Athlon 3000+ 2.1ghz
Upgraded to Crucial 2X 1gb. of RAM
Upgraded to geforce 6600 AGP
Upgraded to Thermaltake 430W PSU because of static shock
Everything else factory.
My sister says she had a problem with it restarting once in awhile but did not have the same problem I had as far as I know. The monitor seems to freeze once in and awhile and screen flickers to a black screen just about everytime im on the computer. When monitor freezes alt+ctrl+tab does nothing and have to restart computer. This only seems to also happen when I have mulitple programs or browser windows up too, so I dont know if this is the problem with montior or computer. I believe all drivers are updated and this problem happened before the upgrades. I currently have DVI cable connected to computer-monitor and also tried standard VGA cable with same problem. I also have nothing connected to USB ports in monitor or anything for that matter.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
