thanks for the quick responses guys:) found the manual that came with MKIIcr & it does mention pixel flickering might occur while using HighGFX driver due to heat issues so I think I'll reinstall my fan & add a heat sink to Alice tomorrow. I'll also install the latest tool from Jens. Timing fix seems easy enough if problem persists else just go back to 800x600 as that's what i was running before with no issues.
btw, I got rid of my 2'nd CF IDE as my DH0 as they just seem to get corrupted too easily over time and now got my 'real' 2.5" IDE drive in my A1200 which of course gets really hot after a while so getting rid of heat is always a good thing. Btw, my Subway USB gets darn hot too come to think of it.
