    What could cause my monitor to have a gray line up top across my screen.


    I set it to bios to see if it was there and it was still there. Is it the monitor? I don't have a 2nd one to test it. I have a windows ten if that helps.

    I use hdmi for my computer and an hdmi for ps4 I switched both hdmi to see if it was the issue but the line is still there no matter which hdmi I use.

    Thanks for your informative post!

    I had solved my 2D & gray screen issue using advice posted by erocker (see below)
    Mainly it involves creating a profile and putting higher 2D clocks:

    "Gray Screen of Death"

    Great post! I have a Sapphire HD 5750 sitting on the shelf going to waste due to the gray screen crash. I run dual monitors and mine crashes randomly in 2D and is guaranteed to gray screen playing any kind of video.

    A few months ago I tried this method to no avail. The clocks stayed up just fine but it didn't help my crashing problem.

    This post has motivated me to maybe find a reference HD 5750 bios of another brand and try flashing.

    I've never flashed a video card, any suggestions or links where I might find a bios and flash utility?

    Thanks again for the great post.
