Re: Horizontal Streaking on Monitor
Sounds like you are getting some noise either from a bad cable or from the motherboard itself. I would try a different cable and if you get the same result, try re-seating the card, or moving to a different slot, if possible. -Derek At 10:33 PM 8/14/2006, Chris wrote: My Video card is an old origional Geforce 256 SDR.

I'm thinking it's the video card in conjunction with the mothboard because I never had any trouble with that card before. Any ideas?

Most of the problems I've seen like this when using KVM switches are due to flakey cables usually el-cheapo KVM cables.
