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.
