First of all, let me just say this - I'm really shocked! About 10 minutes ago I was just browsing through nVnews.net forums when I noticed a post by....wait for it...NVIDIA PR representative!!! It was Brian Burke posting asking for help from community to help the community. Read More for details.

This is an extract from the post: "We have become aware that both NVIDIA and competitor’s cards are experiencing similar problems that are described as “flickering”, “rolling lines” or “quivering” in different forum posts."

This is happening on both Radeon 9xxx and Geforce FX 5xxx cards but only some users are experiencing it. If you have no idea what this is all about, and you own Radeon 9xxx card or FX 5xxx card - that's good news for you! You are one of the many lucky ones.

If you however know exactly what this rolling lines problem is - I suggest you watch this forum thread very closely... (see below) ... Also, check it out to see if you can help nVidia and the community to come up with solution to the problem. Just check out this thread @ nvnews.net forum.

Update: This just in from nVidia PR rep: "It is against company policy for NVIDIA employees to post in forums. As such, I can not reply to your posts. We made an exception in this case.". So there you are folks, they can listen but can't speak (in public). Let's hope ATi doesn't borrow that page from this "company policy" hey ;)

Also wenn ich den Text jetzt mal richtig überflogen habe, wollen die Hilfe von der Community. Schön und gut, und ich will hier auch nix gegen NV sagen, aber schaffen die das nicht alleine? Von ATI hab ich noch nie so eine Reaktion auf ein Problem gelesen. Muss ja schon was verdammt schwieriges sein, wenn NV sogar die Community braucht. Aber wie gesagt, ich hab den Text nur überflogen und daher kann es sein, dass ich da auch was Missverstanden habe.

ich kann mir auch nicht vorstellen, dass eine fette firma wie nvidia ein paar forenleser auffordert ihnen ein problem zu lösen. Hört sich doch sehr suspekt an.
