Weird

[Inquisitor]

Something really werid is going on at the bottom of my task bar, where all the programs run in the background, the task bar is flickering from left-to-right at a fast pace.

Any suggestions as to why this is happening:confused:

have you tried and restart your computer ?

might be a temporary bug.

That was the first thing I did m8, and still the same. I have also run Norton AV Pro 2003 after I re-started.

That means its not a virus, well the best thing is rebooting your computer if you have no clue what it is, try defregging you computer go to start and you will find the disk defragment from there click on that a clean all your drivers.

I de-frag my comp through the night, used Norton Systemworks 2003 this mornin.

Still I get flickering :cussing:

does it also flickers if you start in safe mode ?

you might want to try and reinstall / upgrade your graphic drivers.

and what os are you using ?

as molle asked what os you using?

has the symptons of what i just experienced whilst my graphics card was on its way out (only my flickering was along the l/h side of my screen)

maybe updates of drivers, or :( a new card

I am using Win 98se with all the updates from MS. I have a GeForce 3 Ti500 Graphics card and all the drivers from Nvidia.

Although I have differant display drivers, with 98 I have version 4 and when I change to XP Pro (duel boot) I have version 6.1.3. I haven't used XP Pro for a couple of weeks, I will see if there is a problem with XP.

*Update*

I switched over to XP Pro and there wasn't a problem so I went back to 98 and I formatted the HDD and re-installed 98se Now the flickering is gone.

bloody pain in the bum :cussing:

Thanks for your help ppl:)
