    May I suggest looking at something else from time to time. Preferably something more than a few feet away and not emitting bright light. Your eyes will appreciate it. BW CP Member Homepages

      Buy a new monitor. You eyes adapt. Before i could not see any flickering on a 60Hz monitor, now i see plenty of the 75Hz. But my 21 inch monitor with hiz refresh rate of 100hz, is still ok, but for how long X| . Also Degauss your monitor. This also help sometimes.

        whoever you are and whatever monitor there will be flickering. no person can see it especially at 70hz+. im not saying i can actually see it flicker, im just saying that it IS flickering so much and my eyes do see it, but i dont actually see the blinking, no one can. edit: and from my eyes having so much strain, for seeing so much flickering for that length of time, after the monitor is off and the setting is so different (laying down, lights out, in bed) they are still trying to do as much work as they were doing when i was looking at the screen, and with all the flickering going on. ------------------------ Jordan.

          wut is our human eyes' (well, our brains') FPS? how many hertz does our brain operate on in communication with our eyes? im sure many of you xperience this... : after being on the comp till the wee hrs of morning and finally decide to go to bed, you lay down, lights off, and your eyes are going insane.. that cause ur eyes are too used to seeing so many frequent flickers of the monitor, for the past god knows how many hrs? ------------------------ Jordan.

          You should make backgrounds red, and texts green. Or vice versa. Works wonders for your sanity. :rolleyes: Seriously, you should go have your eyes checked by an optician(?). I did, got a pair of glasses, and I have no problems at all with "flickering monitors" anymore. -- Futue te et ipsum caballum.

                    It doesn't work as frames per second. It operates on the difference between 1 perception and the next and the human brain's frequency is around 16 Hz.

                            If this is happening, make sure the framrate of the monitor is at least 25Hz greater than the frequency of your mains supply. For example, in the UK we have 50Hz mains so I set my monitor refresh rate to 75Hz. This is because there is some flicker from the lighting and when you move your eyes the effect of this on the flicker from the monitor can produce effects at the dfiierence of the two, e.g. 60Hz - 50Hz gives a 10Hz flicker which means your eyes have trouble keeping focus as they move. Let me know how is goes. Elaine :rose: The tigress is here :-D
