I just put this in another thread but...........

The Indivision ECS is picky about clean power. On my A500+ I switched from a Obese Boy power supply (not very politically correct name) to a modded XT power supply. It was like magic the Indivision started working without a problem.

I got the old Oscope out and looked at the Obese Boy supply, the 5 volt line was a bit noisy particularly when the floppy drive it being accessed. Before the power supply switch I had all types of issues with the Indivision. It would everything from drop signal to have tearing screen issues.

Assuming it's scanlines you're seeing, these are a feature of the Indi ECS. You can toggle them in the preferences program.

Are you using it with a monitor that has DVI or a VGA connector?  If you're using it with a regular VGA 15 pin, you need to disable the digital output from the card, via the indivision tools on their support site (this applies to vertical lines).

Since when does the Indivision ECS have a digital output?
Life sucks. Then you die. Then they throw mud in your face. Then you get eaten by worms. Be happy it happens in that order... My Amiga 1200

LOL.  There's multiple threads about Indivision's all going on at the same time.  Perhaps the poster got them mixed up?  ;)

Sorry, I might have confused it with the MK2.  In the instructions, it says if you have vertical lines present on your display, you need to go into the indivision utility where you set its modes, and disable DVI output and only enable VGA.  I had that, so, that's what I did (since I was using it on a monitor that did not have a DVI input and used a DVI --> VGA adapter on it).
