G41/G50 Monitors - Jitter in 800x600 mode at 85Hz

Applicable to: World-Wide

Symptom:
6542-1xx and 6543-1xx monitors may experience screen jitter when operating in 800x600 mode at 85Hz. This has also been described as characters and vertical lines that "dance" or appear "torn."

Problem Isolation Aids:
Isolate the symptom by operating the monitor in a different mode or refresh rate. This symptom should only be seen at 800x600, 85Hz.

Fix:
Change the refresh rate for the resolution, via BIOS setup.

The symptom is dependent upon screen loading and on outlet supply voltage; therefore, many users may never see this problem. If the symptom is noticed, the solution is to change the refresh rate for that resolution. A refresh rate of 75 Hz is suggested to maintain flicker free operation. This should have no significant impact on the use of the monitor.
