monitor issue

I installed vista beta 2:

Intel p4 3.2 GHZ
2048 mb ram
3x 160 GB HDD Maxtor
nvidia 6800 128 mb
monitor, IIyama HM903DAT

the problem is the my screen keeps turning on and off.
I also installed the latest nvidia driver.
My PC is dual boot and under windows XP there is no problem with the screen.

Re: monitor issue

Are you using the NVIDIA Vista Beta Drivers?

Re: monitor issue

Dumb question perhaps, but have you checked your display settings to make
sure the resolution and refresh rates are within the specs for your monitor
and it's not just trying to display but can't because of improper settings,
so it reset's itself and trys again, etc..

Re: monitor issue

Good, point. It dos indeed give this error. But the resolutions are far below
max. the HM903DTA can do 1600*1200 @ 100 hz it runs on 1280*1024 @ 85 hz (
max is 1280*1024 @ 120 hz
