Every now and then, my new monitor (like 3 days old) flickers from time to time, roughly every 1~30mins

This is pretty annoying considering I have an old Samsung SyncMaster 152N that has no problems. But my new Samsung SyncMaster 226BW flickers, despite how much I love it, it's really annoying.

I'm using the DVI connection, it does it on both my graphics card ports and I'm currently running both monitors in Dual Screen. Any ideas?

Don't even mention degauzing, it's an LCD, lol

Sounds faulty, you should get that replaced.

Nevermind, found problem...

Quote:
Low to moderate clicking and a very brief pause between screens is usually normal, and occurs when the video adapter card changes the video signal's resolution or refresh rate. When this happens, the monitor (which was synchronized with the old signal), must automatically synchronize to the new signal. This is what you are seeing and hearing.
