I have a fairly new system - P4 2.4 with 512mb running XP. I've had it for about 9 months now. Recently (in the last month) I've been experiencing an intermitent problem where random colored lines spring up on the display. Sometimes this occurs during post, sometimes right after boot up and sometimes it goes away for a few days. If I run anything requiring 3D rendering (such as a video game) I get all sorts of screen artifacts and blocks. But again this is intermitent - it can happen right away, after a couple of hours or not at all for days.
I thought this was a video card issue (I was using a Radion 9800 pro 128mb)so I swapped the card for an older Radeon card (a 7200). I still get the issue.
I swapped the monitor, and I still get the issue.
Anybody else know what this could it be?
Thanks
Mike
