I am experiencing horizontal streaking in graphics and text mode. But after fouling around in X11 it's very noticable. I thought it might be the scan rate but text mode doesn't have a high scan rate by default. The monitor is fine. And why I am using a KVM I get the same results connecting the monitor directly to the video card. 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? Chris
