Flickering on LCD Monitor

[(Chanse)]

I recently purchased a Samsung Syncmaster 172N, my first LCD. I just reinstalled WinXP and am now getting some weird flicker on the screen that comes and goes, like horizontal ghosting lines. Checked the display drivers, (Compaq laptop, with Radeon Mobility) and am using the monitor drivers from Samsung. Like i said , i am new to LCD's so not really sure what may be up

the LCD itself could be bad

i thought that . but it was workign fine until i reinstalled ZP, went from Home to Professional version. I know LCD's can be prone to flicker, compared to CRT. The lcd was working fine until i reinstalled. I checked different resolutions and refresh rates. Still there

well, switch back to pro and see if it is doing it there now or not, then you will know if its an issue with the OS or the monitor for sure
