The stand he meant is a desk mount, not a stand on a desk surface

My personal monitor is Achieva ShiMian with tempered glass, which is just beautiful. I went for a CrossOver for a present for my boyfriend because of my seller's perfect pixel policy and promise of an A+ panel, as I wanted it to have no problems. Otherwise I would have gone for another Achieva IPSB, but afraid of more noticeable dust under glass. It's all mostly aesthetic - to each their own.

I got mine in today, and so far, everything looks perfect! ...except one thing.

I'm getting those faint 'interference' lines running up and down the screen. Didn't notice it as first because it's very faint, but now that I see it, it's over the entire screen and I have no idea what's causing it.

Tried another DVI-D cable but for some reason doesn't want to display with the other one I have.

AccessoriesWhole / I would assume so.

Re: "interference" lines - Hm, could be your other dual link DVI cable is faulty?

Are you running other monitors on the same graphics card? Are you overclocking your graphics card?

Yeah, I'm running other monitors on it, but disabled them just to test. It's a 6950, and isn't overclocked. I'm guessing the DVI cable, since I haven't heard of this being an internal monitor problem.

Bah, now to get hunting for a spare cable. (And THIS is why I said cable that came with the monitor = bad)

He replied that they will take the advise and implement new packaging standards.

I have to say that bigclothcraft replied to all my enquiries promptly and has done his best from his end to make me a happy customer.

So you're plugging in just the new monitor and nothing else? It's not in "extended display" mode by chance? Make sure it's set as "show only on this display" and is the only monitor plugged in to troubleshoot. Also, did you have any custom monitor settings in your catalyst control center perhaps? Like a different refresh rate setting somewhere. Just trying to think of anything software-related before blaming the cable or the monitor. Make sure the DVI cable are securely plugged into the monitor and your computer.

This monoprice cable is good, I got it and using it now, although there really was no need because both of my Korean ones worked just fine (one came with my Achieva and another with a Crossover):
http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=102&cp_id=10209&cs_id=1020901&p_id=2685&seq=1&format=2
(there are longer versions, if needed). The cable is very very thick and inflexible, but not a big problem, as you'd just let it run between the stand and the back of the monitor.

Your cable could be fine too for that matter. I think the cases of them being bad are quite rare.

Yeah, I made sure I checked all of that too - so it's weird.

It's just a PITA that it 'see's but won't display with the other DVI cable I had (even though it's a DVI-D) so I'll have to speed order another and hope it's not the monitor.

Edit: Just noticed I have periodic flickering on a white screen as well. Hmm...

Can you make pics of OSD menu with all sub-items? Is there a separate adjustment of backlight in OSD (not only Brightness in Picture sub-item)? Thanks.
