Hi List, I have just taken on a new studio and with it my CRT monitor has taken on a nasty vertical flicker. This has been imroved by setting refresh at 100 Hz (OK for this card / monitor) and turning off the strip lights also improves things(!), but it is still not quite right and long term usage is not going to be possible.
I should add that this is power related. The monitor is fine at home and the previous tenant had a similar problem. On her machine this flicker manifested itseld as the whole image moving up and down by approx 1mm at a frequency of 40 - 60hz. On my machine it is much more subtle (@100hz refresh), but makes reading text impossible My question: Is a UPS the answer or is there a cheaper method? I do not really fancy laying out for 3 UPS @ UK 150 each. Ideally the landlord should supply a clean supply, but how does one achieve that? Thanks for any thoughts, Nick. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Nick Wilcox-Brown A member of the Association of Photographers W: www.NickWB.com =============================================================== GO TO http://www.prodig.org for ~ GUIDELINES ~ un/SUBSCRIBING ~ ITEMS for SALE
