Hello everbody,
I have quite a journey behind me. I have experienced monitor flickering in sync with sounds of electrical discharges (thats my guess at least). Unfortunatly the video here shows only the flickering screen without the sounds:
My first attempt to solve this issue was to replace my first HDMI/DVI cable (above 6m/20ft) and get a shorter second HDMI/DVI cable (3m/10ft). The cable alongside a number of USB cables goes through a wall with three 90° angles.
Since the issue was still there I tried a number of screens, without any success.
My next step was to change every single component in my PC including the case. No luck. I was blown away.
I connected the PC with a 2m HDMI/DVI cable to a TV, the cable hanging straight in the air, with only one 90° angle in front of the HDMI port of the TV. That fixed it. No more issues.
I pulled the second cable (3m) out of the wall and connected it with cable being comparably straight to what I did with the third cable (2m) and I had no more issues as well. Trying that with my first cable (6m) was not possible so I had it lying around the floor, and there I had the issues again.
I am completely clueless what is going on but desperatly want to get it working. If anyone has experince with this or give me direction, advise or suggestions where I can get consultation, that would be greatly appreciated.
