V8 HMD showing snow pattern

[bailenson]

Hello, has anyone had a problem using the Virtual Research V8 HMD showing a horizontal line pattern that shimmers?

Thanks, Jeremy

Make sure you are running in 1280x640 60Hz mode.

I meant 1280x480 60Hz.

Also perhaps try removing any cables, splitters, or switch boxes just to isolate the problem and determine if it's definitely occuring in the HMD. If you have more than 1 HMD, swap boxes / head gears. Also hook it up to a different computer to make sure it's not the computer's graphics card. If all points to the HMD, then maybe something has been shook loose.
