Wondering if anyone can possible offer any words of wisdom. I recently sent my MACPRO and Display to Apple in Spain as my monitor was experiencing very weird flashing on the montior multi colored lines and colored streaking.

In summary they changed the graphics card, did not help

Changed the monitor, did not help

I finally got everything back after a very long time and was told that a small wire that goes into the graphics card was changed, everything was fine for a little while and now the dreaded lines are back.


We have tried everything from different keyboards to well everything and the issue keeps on coming, sometimes it will be fine for a an hour or so and then it strikes.........

I was curios if it could be an electrical issue?, everything points at the tower and not the monitor as this is new.

However bizzarre you ideas might be anything would be gratefully reveived as I do not want really want to send it away for another long period of time...


Thanks Jeremy
 
Did you try a new power adapter for your display?
