Perhaps you guys who know about this can help me with a similar problem I have. We have a alrge flat-panel TV at work which we use to broadcast a powerpoint slideshow. We used to use a laptop to do it, but that seemed like overkill and so we bought a cheap desktop (Compaq celeron 600 12bRAM,) and put a Gainwaird Nvidia card in it with a VIVO connector. The problem is that now we keep getting that flickering. I've tried the RCA TV out and S-Video TV out, still just about the same problem (except the picture looks pixelated with the S-vid cable). Any cost-effective solution to the problem? The owner has to pay, thus the solution MUST be cost-effective. I can't seem to fix it with software and the cables are as good grade as you can get. Incidentally there are a few RGB inputs on the TV as well if that helps.... Feel free to PM me if you have any ideas. Thanks!
