partial display, horizontal lines, flicker - SOLVED
as this is solved it is for information only, mainly aimed at those who also have this 'problem'
suddenly my 23" samsung 2333 display started to flicker and give a partial display of my win screen with a lot of horizontal lines.
see image.
although i managed to get into windows the top edge of the screen was not accessible, making it virtually impossible to access controls situated at the top of open programs - i had to guess where the cursor is as it 'vanished' from the visible part.
after uninstalling printer drivers, removing the graphics card and plugging the monitor into the mother board the problem persisted, reminding me it was there in bios as well!
replace display with old one lying around, voila, problem sorted.
the display needs replacement.
so i figure if you guys get a problem display even at bios level, before any drivers start kicking in; odds are good the display is the culprit.
