Howdy,
I have a Samtron 7c and it left and right edge of the montor flickers or blinks.. :) What do I need to do to fix this problem? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

If possible:

1) Try the Samtron monitor on another PC

2) Try another monitor on this pc

3) Check to make sure the cable is securely connected


It's possible that the monitor cable has gone bad. Most OEM monitors don't allow you to replace this cable very easily. You'll want to contact a local dealer or the vendor's website for assistance if that's the case...

Also possible that your monitor is picking up interferance from something. It can even happen if your monitor cable is running over/around power cords, etc. You don't see it often, but it can happen!

As cdogg suggests, try swapping monitors around and post the results back. There are other things that it can be also, and he has you on the right track. Mudskipper
