monitor is a hp w19e

gpu is a asus 660 ti

VGA, DVI, HDMI or Display port?

 

Edit that monitor only has VGA and DVI by the looks of it its pretty old try switching the inputs from VGA to DVI and vice versa if that doesn't work I suggest a new monitor

It seems that people with a 660 Ti are having these 'shaky' screen problems.  I've seen two threads with the same problem so far.

Do you mean flickering? Do you live in an earthquake zone?

any way to fix it (it seems to not happen on older drivers but I need the new ones for shadowplay.

no, the image does not turn of but it shakes side to side

The last forum post I saw, the victim rolled back the drivers.   It seems to not have worked for you.

 

Do you have System Restore enabled?  Maybe see if there was a restore point before you upgraded the drivers.

I rolled back and it is working fine but I hope nvidia fixes this as I love shadowplay (one of the main reasons I bought this not a 270x).

is there any change it could be a fault in my gpu?

Unlikely.  Perhaps it doesn't 'play nice' with the new drivers . ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

You say all is stable with the old drivers.And ustable(shaky) with the new. 

You will have to decide if you can live with the shakiness and use Shadowplay, or want stability and you are not to bothered with not using Shadowplay. untill nVIDIA sort the new driver both to be stable and to use Shadowplay.  

  Write to nVIDIA, maybe they already have a fix or maybe they don't know or... anyway an email costs nothing (apart from a bit of time), and they can't fix something if they don't know it's broken.

If it is not the drivers, and it is not overheating then the only other things that I can think of that would do this is bad cables, a weak solder joint on a board , EMF interference (i.e. cellphone close to monitor or unshielded speakers close to monitor) or a failing video card. Just my 2 cents.

Try actually reading his posts,the screen/GPU works fine with the old drivers but not with the new ones I would hazard that that pretty much points towards the drivers being the issue .

Yeah, I would write to NVIDIA, or, like soup said, you might have to choose if they can't do anything for you (but they more than likely will be able to help you).  Have you tried any of the beta drivers?

Actually I have read the entire thread prior to the post but was just reiterating the possibilities. Thank you for your helpful suggestion.

just checking about the gpu as I just bough it second hand.

I tested it on an old-ish driver but to no avail, it still shook.

tommorow I will plug it into the tv and test it there is that will get rid of some variables (whether it is my monitor, cable, interference (as it is in another room) or dvi to vga adapter).

it seems to come at differerent times; one time it school through the post screen and others it takes several hours.

I will aslo test windows 8 and an older driver.

if that fails I'll test my pc on onboard and if that works ill ask for a refund.

If it did it during the post (at boot screen prior to the OS loading) then that eliminates the drivers as they are not loaded in yet.
