just for the heck of it i connected dual monitors to my computer, on 2 different display adapters. No problems until i put the monitors side by side. now the monitors have a line going up and down the screen about every 3 seconds, the line goes from either the top of the screen to the bottem in about 5 seconds or vise vera. what is this? something wrong with the monitors being side by side?
 
yep they are interfering eachother with there radiation or elektromagnetic thingies. just put them a littl bit apat from eachother
 
Thanks

Thank you, fixed the problem. they just have to be about 30 CM away from each other.
 
Monitor Issue

Hello there,

Glad to hear that the separation worked.

Just an extra thought -- I have 3 19" Flat CRTs (got within the last 2 years) next to each other and I don't have any problem -- I imagine that the newer CRTs may have less leakage.

It would not hurt to check your refresh rates and increase them if you can.

I think you are right there.... my 2 monitors are practically touching they are so close and there is no garble or anything...

am seriously considering plugging in an AIW radeon VE and plugging in my 15 incher for other work... or using it with linux... though not sure about the support...

certainly newer stuff does have less 'leaks' :)

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
