green line on my screen

New 630i.

q9450/2gb800mhz/500gbRAID1/two9800gtSLI/XPsp3

Dell 2408 with DVI cable

 

Had to redo my RAID and reinstall all software and drivers (with tech support talking me through it) when I first started up because would not boot up XP.

Seemed to go smoothly (took 3 long phone calls) but now each time that I start up (though the entire start up process) and subsequently for a short period (5-15 minutes), I have a incomplete green line of pixels down the middle of my screen and the left half of my screen looks normal but the right half has diffuse abnormal pixels showing through and distorting desktop. It seems temporary (have not been on my new computer for extended periods of time (have not had time to migrate, etc.) but don't know if major underlying problem like bad monitor, bad video card(s), etc.

Tried to work through it once with tech support (reloaded drivers for video card), but happened again the next time I booted up.

 

Any ideas? Anybody have the answer as to what is wrong and how to fix it?

 

Thanks much

Dave
