    every now and then my screen shows flashing gray lines :(

    so far i've turned the graphics accelerator down.

    i've moved the screen about to see if its movement(lose connection).

    removed old drivers then re-installed the intel graphics media accelerator driver :(

    so im now thinking bad mother board, loose battery or the inverter is on the way out :(

    running XP pro, 2gb DDR2
    on aspire 7112. CPU Celeron M 420 1.6ghz
    intel graphics 950 GMA
