Strange constant flicker on LCD Monitor - help?!
I've been having this problem for a while now, and I really want to get to the bottom of it.
The flicker takes the form of narrow vertical shadows moving across the screen horizontally. It isn't particularly noticeable on lighter backgrounds, but on a darker screen, it's really distracting. I notice it most when play Minecraft (in dark areas) and at darker scenes during DVD playback.
I thought it might be that the monitor isn't getting enough power - there's my PC, an external HDD, surround sound speaker system and two lamps running off the same power supply - but I plugged it into a different supply, and still had the same problem.
One thing which might be causing it: the cable the monitor was supplied with is a European two-pin, rather than a UK three-pin, and I'm having to use an adaptor.
Any advice would be much appreciated!
