Dual Monitor problem

[ssrat]

Hi Right now this is on an ATI 1950XTX (512), switching to a 3870
Wed?

I was running a princeton 19 in VGA mode, when it started to red
shift, so with christmas money I picked up an Acer 22w"
And then decided why not go dual (swithing it to DVU cleared up the
redshift BTWY

OK NOW, the 22Wide is running at 160*1050 while the 19 is at its max
of 1280*1024 and I am running in extended mode.

The problem is that the screens will decide to have blackouts for
just a sec or 2 at random intervals usually primamry, back on then
both and back on aagin.

It does not matter what I am doing, watching a movie or even typing
a letter.
it also seems to surge the sytem to %100 for a couple of seconds
then it rcovers and everything is fine

Any clues REALLY appreciated (btwy: the 22 worked fine by itself for
a day before I did this)

You wrote that your 19" was going bad.
