Roger,

I can only say that having someone wearing an earthing strap who is
brave enough to delve inside my Iyonix case to remove and re-install
my graphics card (thank you John) worked wonders for the problem I had
(see the thread on "Iyonix Freezing . . . and now dying").

The symptoms I had were a bit different;  but my screen is an Iiyama
flat-screen;  the impact of duff contacts on the graphics card would
no doubt be different with a CRT.

Anyway  -  as they say  -  it's always worth a try.

David.
