I'm using a Sharp LC-37GP1U. I checked the OPC (dynamic brightness based
on surrounding light) setting this morning and it's off, so
unfortunately, that's not it. I've been using this display for the past
few years with my previous frontend (nVidia 9500 w/ DVI) without this
issue, suggesting to me it's something with the ION2 box. I guess I
could hook up a different monitor to see if the problem goes away...

I'm currently using the 195.36.24 drivers. It was suggested that
updating to the beta nVidia drivers might fix this issue, so I'll give
that a shot this weekend.

Thanks,
Joe
