just got new mobo but the screen flickers/flashes....
I just got an Asus M4A785-M mobo because my original mobo fried which is now being RMA'd back to Asus so they can send me a new one. However, the mobo I now have installed fine (i didnt reformat my HD when i installed this new mobo) but after trying new and old drivers, ALL windows updates and soooo much more, my desktop screen flickers and flashes especially when I move my mouse around and when I hover over my quicklaunch icons, and folders etc.., they disappear then reappear sometimes.
What I just found out online was this link ATI CrossFireX which talks about the Hybrid CrossfireX. This mobo has that and I think that is whats causing this flickering stuff to happen. I'm looking for a way to disable all onboard video (HDMI and VGA) so that it might fix the issue. Or, if there's a way to "enable" this Hybrid CrossfireX and have it actually work correctly with my video card. It states on that website in the link I posted above that it's compatible only with windows vista pc's..?!??! Could this be the issue? Because I run Win7 Ultimate 64-bit, but ON the mobo box it says "windows 7 ready" so I'm really wanting this to be fixed because I'm about to reformat and I'd rather not.
Please post any help if you can.
Thanks,
James
