I don't have the 9600, but the 9200SE. I filed a bug report over 
a year ago, but my issue was different. The bug is still open, 
however, and many people have posted comments to it, reflecting 
different symptoms. In my case, using the DVI output resulted in 
periodic blanking of my monitor to black, It would start off 
slowly and increase in frequency, making the computer unusable. 
The fix? I switched to the VGA output, and never had any trouble 
since. That's why I asked. You're probably right - it sounds 
like you may have a different issue.
