Question:

PHILPS LCD has snowflakes

The new 22 inch PHILPS 220V LCD display, when you see more colors, you can see a bit of snow, like the kind of TV signal, but not very obvious! Display problem or graphics card problem? How about going back? The store sent a DVI line, two interfaces are the same, but my card that XFX 8500GT DVI interface how different?? Can you plug in the two lines together? The monitor says yes..

Answer:

In the presence of snow, press the Auto button of the monitor. If the situation improves, the problem of the monitor can be completely determined. You can find another monitor to troubleshoot the problem.The output interface on the DVI card is different from that of the wire rod, and they are complementary.The two line, you mean the DVI and VGA lines are inserted at the same time, the display is to select one line of signal work, it is recommended to retain only one DVI signal line.VGA's signal line is not entirely beneficial, and the stretch blur is very good at boot and zoom.
There are three kinds of situations and solutions:Flower screen is a common display fault, most of the screen failure is caused by the graphics card itself. If occasionally access to the system, or can enter the safe mode (F8), first reinstall the video card driver, and then to clean up the gold finger, generally can be resolved. If the system cannot go in, is very likely the memory damage, often occurs Huaping phenomenon in the chaotic character of the system is started, it must be replaced or memory card.The temperature is too high, the graphics card fan is not good, or the case of wind is not good, resulting in high temperature, high summer temperatures, this situation is seen; to touch the memory chip temperature, check the graphics card fan is stopped. Look at the motherboard on the AGP slot whether there is ash, check the video card of the gold finger is oxidized, and then according to specific circumstances to clean the dust, wipe the gold finger with an eraser, the oxidation part polished.The power supply is not enough. If there's nothing wrong before, you can basically rule out this item;
When the monitor shows snow, check it according to the following steps:1) try to restore the display factory settingsPress the button on the monitor (OSD menu) to find the restore factory settings, click on the confirmation of the existence of the fault.2) confirm whether the contact of the monitor line is in good condition and whether the connection line is damaged or notMake sure the connection is secure and replace the wire to confirm that the monitor is still working.3) make sure the video card driver is abnormalTry reinstalling or updating the video card driver to see if the display fault is still4) if the above item does not solve the fault, replace a monitor to have a look. If the change after the failure is still, that is the graphics card hardware problems, at this point the need to repair the video card.
