I'm running s-video to a sony wega and find the picture has a constant
slow-motion kind of flicker. Actually "flicker" isn't right, I don't
know how to describe it... I guess it's more like a pulse with weird
colour ghosts around the images. Anyway, I've played with the TV out
settings and resolution and nothing seems to work. Kind of
disappointing 'cause I went with a shitbox tv for a long time and
finally saved for a good one. Sure would be nice to play Wolfenstein
or watch an avi movie without this problem. Any suggestions? Should I
try a different video card? I was using a trusty old Matrox G400 dual
head with great results but it died.

Any suggestions would really be appreciated.

Thanks,
Glenn
 
I have to the same thing, only my g400 is still alive, the refreshrate is to
low at 60hz and i cant change it whatever i do.

Btw what do you think of the imagequality in staed of the matrox g400? I
must say the colors of the matrox are still unbeatable.
 
Yeah, the g400 did pretty well before it quit on me... it would run
fine for a short while then lose all color and run in black and white.
Maybe I should have purchased another one instead of the radeon.
