Esprimo v5505 Graphics flicker on Jaunty

Asked by ab2qik

Trying to stop video display flicker. Flicker happens when mouse is hovered over an anchor link.
What steps are needed to stop this unwanted flicker. Would like to be able to install and use Compiz afterwards.
Thankyou.

1. Make sure you are using a refresh rate that is fully compatible with your graphics card and monitor.
2. Make sure that the cable connecting the graphics card and monitor isn't defective or damaged.
3. Make sure that the monitor isn't causing it => swap the monitor for another and try again.

Please try these tips I've given you and tell me how it works out. Good luck!

Can you help with this problem?
