[QUOTE="CalebNOW, post: 1428842, member: 263999"] Hello, I have an interesting problem, and I am trying to figure out if it is a graphics card issue, or a display issue. There are random wavy lines on the screen in blue and yellow. The lines seem to move and appear with different windows open and follow the windows around, so it doesn't appear to be a display issue. Has anyone else had problems like this?? And how would I go about fixing it, do I need to buy a new graphics card, or should I start somewhere else. Here are my specs, and a screenshot of the problem. 24" Early 2008 iMac 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo 4 GB 800 MHz DDR2 SDRAM NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GS 512 MB Mac OS X Lion 10.7 Thanks!
