I am a resident of Switzerland. I have a TIN but don't use it on the forms. Never have. I am non US anyway (EU passport). Do I need to use the TIN and the W8BEN form to avoid withholding ? This is what you seem to imply Aaron ? Again never used the TIN before and never paid taxes on interest...

But I am already paying taxes in my home country. I never paid US taxes on interest earned on cash balance . Isn't the purpose of the W8BEN form making sure there won't be any double taxation if there is a tax treaty between the US and your home country?

one monitor on each card, 3 cards

it also seems better if I leave an inch space between the 2 aforementioned monitors. I noticed problems when appliances get too close to each other near those monitors. Could that be the problem ?

could it be a driver problem ? the dead pixels now show when I click on the screen #2 next to the monitor (but not by clicking on the 3d screen on the other side), when I mouse over to the problem monitor/card the pixels disappear.

opened the case and pushed the card into the slot a bit, there was 2-3 mm play . The screen looked OK at startup but the dead pixels are coming back slowly. This is n't a monitor problem I tried several monitors.

One video card (ATI chip) started acting up a few weeks ago , a few stale pixels here and there at startup or when moving objects on the screen . Now about half of the pixels are blue and it stays that way. This card was installed new less than 2 years ago, is it dead?
