Title: Svreen Shakinessss
Post by: Diablus on June 07, 2005, 12:03:11 PM

>_<  I noticed now recently every single time some sort of appliance (AC/Dryer, washing machine) goes off my computer screen starts "shaking" and it kills my eyes and makes me dizzy... I degaussed plenty of times but that only seems to help for about a second or two...

I recently uninstalled my old 2003 drivers and installed 2005 ones.


Helppppp :wacko:

How far away are they from your computer?  A lot of juice flowing through a washer\drier and may have a surge or something.

Are you connected to a surge protector?

If its your actual monitor getting that way then its not your drivers.

Different outlet, OR go get a cheap UPS.  You aren't after the runtime during a power outage so much as you are looking for something to clean up the input voltage.  I'm thinking that the EM noise on the line isn't good for any of your computer parts plugged into it.

I found one on newegg for $30, but because its heavy, shipping is $20.  Any local computer store should have it... just get the cheapest one from a good manufactuer.
