Acer AL2216W  LCD Monitor

Ripping horizontal lines on background

posted by Alex233 on Sep 18, 2007


Computer: Dell Latitude D610.
Video card: ATI Mobility RadeonX300
Connection: Analog VGA cable to LCD
Configuration: 1680X1050, 60HZ

Problem: The monitor displays a 'rippling' like waves on the background. The horizontal flickering lines moves rapidly from bottom to top. This is very annoying. I installed the latest version of both Acer monitor and Radeon drivers but did not solve the problem.

Thanks for the help. The refresh rate is 60 HZ, which is exactly what Acer recommends.

Your problem is not the drivers or hardware it is in your settings. Goto windows hardware settings for your monitor. Look down where it says refresh rate. Write that number down then go to the manufactures web site. Enter in your favorite search engine your monitor model and to to the manufactures site. Check to see what they recomend as your optimum and maximum refresh rates. Pay attention to the screen size also this plays a huge role in performance and out of sink refresh rates. Just out of coureosity are you overclocking your cpu or ram?
