Blinking of TFT

[Mangal Pandey]

I recently brought a Samsung Syncmaster 2243NWX, 22" widescreen TFT.
From the past 1 week, I'm getting a strange problem. The screen automatically blinks continously for 12-15 times. After that the monitor gets turned off. Can anyone explain me the cause of this 'blinking'. Is it a hardware defect or 'some kind of Virus' ?(pardon my ignorance). I also have a GE Force 4400 MX graphics card installed to it?

call samsung customer care.. get the thing tested for manufacturing defects..

Well, its a h/w defect...

also jus make sure that the cord of the monitor wich goes in the CPU (from behind) is installed/plugged in tightly and firmly.. i. e check all wires/sords to/from the monitor to the CPU and mains..

thanQ 4 ur response.
All cables well checked. Yesterday, I also applied 'paste' on the graphics card. (to tackle overheating issues). but efforts were not fruitful.
