Hello. Sorry if this question has been asked before: My SE is only a year old, and the screen has been flickering and dancing a bit lately (which is really annoying)...is this possibly a problem with my surge protector or house electrical wiring, or is this a problem with the machine itself? If it sounds like the machine, does anyone have a rough guess for what a repair like this would cost? thanks. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ maria lasaga dept. of psychology gilmer hall university of virginia charlottesville, virginia 22903 mil@virginia

Also caused a lamp to flicker every 20-30sec. Anyone else noticed this? Is it dangerous for the hard drive? Chris Upton usercu11@ualtamts
