EEK! Oh Shoot...

About every few minutes or so at or above any resolution of 1280x960, my computer monitor suddenly gets very dim for a quarter second, then bounces back with a slight gridding/moire pattern everywhere... a degauss barely gets rid of any of this gridding, and its monitor based, so I can't really take a screenshot... does anyone know what this is? I'm fearing a monitor failure, mainly because I have no other PC compatible monitors.....

Well it looks like the monitor, but you might want to try a different vcard (if you have a spare). Just in case. Good luck, buddy.
