6500—Distinguishing Video Jitter from
Blur

Service providers may encounter two slightly different

video symptoms on monitors connected to Power Macintosh

6500 computers. The first step in troubleshooting this

issue is to differentiate video jitter from blurry video.

There is a different solution to each of these conditions.

Video jitter affects monitors connected to models having a

225 or 250 MHz logic board. Jitter is evident at the edges of

the screen or windows and dialog boxes where the pixels

shimmer or jump.

Blurry video is seen as a fuzzy image over the entire screen

on monitors set to resolutions of 832 x 624 and higher.
