stuttering or flickering parts of screen GV-R587UD-1GD

OK that was the easy bit

Next you have to find out what is causing the latency.  It can be hardware or software.

Go into Device Manager and then disable anything that is not required to run the system. Then try runnning the latency checker again and see how it goes. If you cannot make any high bars then one at a time enable the devices that you disabled just now, checking all the time. This way you should eventually come to the culprit.

it seems its the network adapter when i disable it there are no red bars but i still have the flashing screen

[Dark Mantis]

Right well you need to see if you can find drivers for the LAN/network adapter that will work better. You may be able to update the ones you have got or if not try some slightly older ones.
Make sure that is the only thing that is giving you problems though. Just because it is the first you've found doesn't mean everything else is fine.

Don't worry about the flashing screen for now, deal with one problem at a time or you will just get bogged down.

ok ive spent a few weeks trying difrent things got some new ram divers and such but nothing has worked yesterday i installed the new 10.11 drivers and now i get the problem when i scroll my mouse in say internet explorer sand the flashing covers more of the screen more of the time i also have noticed this may or may not be related that sometimes when i scroll my nouse i can hear a noise its not comeing from the mouse but the speakers i think  have a cordless mx revolution mouse and a g19 keybord that both have there own softwear and there is still no problem when i have wow running and play with the other stuff

I am sure this is not what you want to hear but I think the only way we are going to get to the bottom of this is to strip the system and rebuild part by part outside the case. I would also recommend a format and complete reinstall of the OS and drivers. If you are up for this then post back and let me know.

[bunty]

format and rebuild is easy for me i dont have a problem only thing is i tryed that twice b4 i even started to troll the forums lol mabye 3rd times the charm

[Dark Mantis]

Ok then if you want to we can start tomorrow as it's getting a bit late here to make a start now.

[bunty]

no problem only 8 20 am here time clash much rofl

[Dark Mantis]

Yeah I know! It's always the same problem when I am gassing to an Aussie. I will be here fairly early in the morning though so I will PM you when I come online.

The first installment just to save some time.

Make sure that you observe anti-static precautions.

Lay some cardboard or something similar that is non-conductive on the worktop and remove the motherboard/CPU/heatsink/fan/buzzer/one stick of memory and PSU from the case and put it on the cardboard. Now I know you haven't got any graphics but try and boot. The system should try and then fail emitting a series of beeps. Please post what sounds it makes.

ok i wanted to format b4 i did anything else and i found something out when i had fresh install just booted b4 any updates there was no flashing when i watched you tube only after it did 4 updates did it start to flash
Driver update provided by ATK for support of ATK0110 ACPI UTILITY
ATI Technologies Inc. - Display - ATI Radeon HD 5800 Series
Security Update for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB979309)
Security Update for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB978601)
so im thinking its totaly driver related
i have installed 10.11 and its still flashing
also i just tryed to play around a bit with ccc when i over clocked my high prof memory clock settings it got way worse was doing it with just internet explorer open so i reset to factory defults and unclicked enable ati overdive and it went back to only playing up when i watched utube
oh and one monitor no flicker tested both

[bunty]

i downloaded msi after burner and have been watching the memory clock MHZ they drop to 800 when i watch a you tube vidio but are a stable 1200 the rest of the time when i watch tv on media center there up and down between 900 and 1200

Hi

The problem does indeed seem to be software based and so I would agree that there is no point in stripping the system out. I would steer clear of any overclock at all until you have the system stable at stock clock speeds first.

Do you have access to a different GPU that you could try? Prefereably an nVidia one. That would allow us to eliminate the ATI drivers and console from the equation.
