    My Parhelia's problem (help Me!)

    Hi!
    I've started this new thread because my Matrox Parhelia has a problem.
    It's difficult for me explain you what's happened, but I hope you'll undestand.
    When I use my PC (all programs...there's no difference), images are "shelled"... there's a "flicker" of images!
    I controlled monitor, resolution, refresh, colors, driver etc...all about my graphics system...It's OK!
    And when I overclock with Power Strip (about 10 mhz...no more), the problems increase because there are lots of disturbs: all images (for example) are very ruined and It's no possible...
    Then, my result at 3DMARK 01SE/03 with overclock is even lower than without overclock!! And the options are OK...
    In my opinion, My Parhelia is defective...what a pity...I must find a solution.
    Have I made myself clear?
    What do you think about my problem?
    Please, tell Me something about it!
    All ...It's Ok...but My Parhelia could be defective...sigh!
    Thanks

              Power Supply is the box with the power cords in the back of your PC

                You should also ask for help in the General Troubleshooting forum of Matrox's technical support:

                    300W doesn't seem to be enough for your PC, especially when the 12V rail of most 300W is less than 12A...
