[QUOTE="Terra, post: 973991, member: 97366"] I had the exact same issue with my old HTPC. The reason was the cable and/or the graphics card. My old HTPC was connected with DVI and all black areas had either white or red dots jumping around. Unplugging the cable and reconnecting helped for some time to reduce the amount of jumping points but usually they reappeared again shortly afterwards. To solve the issue I bought a DVI-Repeater (DVI SINGLE LINK REPEATER) that boosted the signal and the dots were gone. I used a 10m DVI cable. Try switching the cable or maybe connect another PC to the same cable and see if you get the same result. I still use the same DVI cable today without the DVI-Repeater together with my new HTPC, there I never had the problem, so from my experience I would say it is a graphic card issue. [/QUOTE]
