    I have this intermediate screen problem. to explain there is screen noise coming out of my speakers. Anytime I flip web pages or roll the mouse over text, it's one of those things that comes and goes.

    I've seen something similar to that before on a different system, turned out to be improperly configured X Windows... so I suppose it could be either bad drivers or misconfigured display settings.

    Are you using an external monitor or the onboard one? Could you tell what display drivers are you using, resolution and bitrate, etc.?

    No external monitor I have the ATI 1600 and it's at the default settings.
