I need your help!

My 30" Monitor is flickering and it's getting pretty annoying.
I've done my research on the interweb and doesn't seem as though anyone has solved this problem.

A lot of people are suggesting to replace the video card but apparently that doesn't work either.. I will give apple a call but thought I'd ask to see if anyone here knows anything about this first. (It's not easy to carry a 30" monitor around! lol)

Thanks in advance.

I heard that Justin has a lot of rear car space he has just freed up.

Here's an article on how they solved the flickering on the new iMac (not sure what you have as I'm a PC). Maybe this might help.

It's prob a video card issue.

I had my macbook pro's one replaced due to it being a known problem. My macbook pro was purchased dec 2007 and its a known problem for macbook pros made between june 07 and dec 08 apparently?

My warranty expired already but since it was a known problem with the video card, they charged me $0.00

You will need make an appointment via the internet by selecting the day and time (get in ASAP as the popular times seem to be mid morning/early arvo are all booked and ur usualyl left with something thats early in the buttcrack of the morning or late)

Chatswood APPLE shop is good..I had my iphone replaced at the george st one as well. top guys.

I know there was an issue with the displays with the 24" ??? about a year back which was a common cause (was only isolated to that size though) have a look at this:

I don't use macs (their simplicity is their downfall on me... It's too simple which makes it difficult)
