    Look in nvidia control panel -> display -> change resolution. What is the value in Hz(refresh rate)? What kind of monitor, LCD or CRT? By "i removed the card and it works fine" what do you mean, do you have a second card? A photo of the screen could be relevant.

    That's not flickering. Your image is doubled-the menu on the right appears tripled!? And again do you have a second card? I'm still confused by the phrase "because when i removed the video card.. monitor works fine..".

    Yeah, that was my mistake. :wall:

    Coming back to the problem.. I'm not sure what he means by after removing the graphics card. :think:

    bonnhew, are you using the motherboard's built-in graphics? And you only get that double image when you hook the monitor up to the graphics card instead?
