Green stripes - no Matrox support ???

[drcaste]

I have sent the card back for replacement. Can you explain to me how to do that, so that I can try it, in case the new one is not working?

Very nice drcaste, I think now we know it all, and thank you for 9 notifications in my mailbox.
Damn - one posting should be enough, eh?

[drcaste]

Sorry about that. Now I now that when it says "Loop failed" it posts the reply the same. It was not intentional of course to post it so many times!

[drcaste]

Sorry guys, there was a connection problem

Hi All

Don't know if this is relevant but it seems to have worked for me.

I have been experiencing the green flash problem on my G200 Marvel when editing videos since late 1999 when I changed my mother board and processor. The current mother board has a VIA PC133 chipset and PIII 500 processor, old mother board BX440 and overclocked PII 350.

I think I may have found a solution to the problem, I have only tested this for about an hour so far and have not experienced and green flashes, so it definitely helps.

I downloaded G200CLK from the MURC site just to see what it did and whilst playing I noticed one of the default settings seemed to be odd.

Using the /3 option the default setting for my system are 84.38, 112.50, 84.38 (equivalent to /3 2 1 2).

I am now using G200CLK /3 2 2 2 (84.38, 84.38, 84.38) in my startup and this has helped if not cured the problem. So I am using G200CLK to slow my system down slightly instead of speeding up as it was intended for.

Any feedback of your experiences trying this fix or further tweeks to improve on it would be much appreciated.

Matrox Tech, if this does work can we have in the drivers soon please?

Another guy told me, that he had the same problem. And: he changed his Marvel and now everything works fine...

Hi boys,
I had my Marvel replaced with a new one from the shop where I bought it, and now my new Marvel works really fine. So, it was definitively a hardware fault problem. Now, I am really, really curious to know what the exact cause is, as I work as a Hardware Quality Engineer.
Bye.

Just had mine (G400) replaced too and guess what...it works fine with no green lines or flashes.

Definitley a hardware problem. Anyway back to my videos now!

With this response from Matrox, I am going to close this thread and open a new one.

This isn't to "suppress" the news, but rather to make it more accessable without having to wade through 4 pages of posts.
