waves and shaking on screen

my computer just got waves and shaking on the monitor
tried a different monitor same result
tryed reloading the ATI driver pack it got worse
dumped everything in the V driver and reloaded still bad
tried high and low rez and refresh rates
high on both looked worse to the point of being unreadable
with lowest rez best but still some waves and shaking
restore to an earlyer date some what better but still there just somewhat less

the box is a A64 in a MS7093 MB with on board ATI xpress 200 V chip

run avast anti-virus maliwarebites spybot adaware combofix and no cure

is this a known bug or is it chip failure
would a video card be a fix to disable the on MB chip

edit googled this a bit and common fixes like el wires or magnets near screen DONOT APPLY
no close source of this problem and no thing new has been added or moved

I'm not quite sure what your problem is. Is the monitor doing this constantly, or is it more of a "flicker?"

Re: waves and shaking on screen

Moving magnetic fields near the monitor can cause this, or even blowing a fan at the monitor can cause it

Re: waves and shaking on screen

fixed it !!!!
was a bad video chip on the MB
I knew it was not magnetic fields
a new video card and no more waves

I am not sure why the restore to early date helped at all
