STOP FLICKERING. NO REALLY STOP

[afuna]

Aghhh does anyone have any tips for where to start troubleshooting a flickering dual monitor? It's getting pretty bad, and I'm two seconds away from throwing the entire thing out the window.

...okay, maybe three, but that's it.

Maybe I should switch from DVI back to VGA? :( I don't recall it being this bad back when I was using the VGA connector.

ETA: Switched back to VGA and I think that's fixed it \o/ So much less pent-up frustration now!

It is probably because I have uhhh. A third party mini-dvi-to-HDMI connector, then an HDMI cable, leading to a HDMI-to-DVI converter, which connects to my monitor (which is DVI)

Many possible points of failure /o\

(I have a mini-dvi-to-dvi connector, but no cable alas *g*)
