Installed a new Sony 42 inch PFM42B2 plasma screen this past weekend. It came with ferrite cores for both the AC cord and the video cables. I have a slight flickering appearing on screen when I am displaying the computer on the plasma screen. I have tried different refresh rates and resolutions. I do not have the flickering problem when using any other source. How do ferrite cores work - would they help with the flickering? Any information or help would be appreciated.

How did you connect the PC to the plasma?
1. If you are using long VGA cable, try to replace it with a better one...(standard VGA cables are good for only 1.5 meters run...)
The best way is to use a VGA to 5 BNC adapter (short) connected to your PC, and then run 5 RG59B/U video cables to your Plasma (for runs > 5m), or a multicore (5) video cable.
2. If you are using the TV OUT(composite or S-Video) output of your PC's VGA Card, try to replace the card with a better one...
For me, the first choice works always perfect.
Hope this will help...
