I would clean it out on the inside to make sure it's not running a little hot, also take out the video card and clean the connectors where it plugs into the mother board and reinstall it, make sure the cord that runs to the monitor is good (wiggle the plugs on the tower and the monitor while it's running and see if you get the static lines or any kind of interference... After all this and it still doesn't work right then maybe you will need a new video card??? This happened to my daughters old PC and I ended up replacing the video card with a gamers card into a different slot and that fixed it (the prob ended up in the board), before I got the new card I had an old parts tower identical to hers and swapped out the video card from that and it did the same thing??? Someone told me about the better card that plugged into a different slot then the org one... I'm not sure about all this with yours because of the PC vs the Apple??? I'm just guessing here, maybe someone else might have a better idea on whats going on with yours???
