Hello,
I just installed FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE #0 on a PC. The hardware specifications are:
AMD 500Mhz CPU
384MB of RAM
SiS 530 Video Card with 8MB of Shared RAM
AOC Spectrum 7Glr monitor
I am using the XFree86 Config file: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XF86Config
I can get the graphical environment to start. My problem is in the video quality of the screen. There is a great deal of "snow". When I move the mouse, the "snow" becomes worse. If I move a window around on the screen, the picture quality deteriorates to the point of unreadability. What can I do to remove the "snow" look on the screen? Please reply back with suggestions to solve this problem.
I also tried Red Hat Linux 9 and had the same results.
Thanks in advance for your help!

You're overclocking your hardware. Reduce the vertical refresh rate or the color depth.
