    Hi all,

    Bought a new case, transferring everything across but now seem to have a problem with my display. It seems to be scrambled, I tried restarting and it was back to normal then it went scrambled again. See below:


    This is how I connected it which I think maybe wrong? Its an ATI 4800 card.




    Thanks for any help

    Looks to me like the monitor can't support the screen resolution. Try restart in SafeMode with F8 while booting. Then check the resolution in the Settings tab of Display Properties.

    I can't comment on the connections, except to say if it worked once the way you have it plugged in its probably right.

    No it's not the resolution as it's at its native resolution!

    I can't remember what way I had the cables connected in the previous case.

    I suppose you could try reseating the card. Apart from that and the res, can't think of anything.

    I removed all cards except the video card and reset the bios and that did the trick!
