I have a weird issue with one of my CGA cards. For some graphics, some of the pixels will "shimmer" in an odd way. I took a pair of videos to illustrate :

This is an "old" IBM CGA card, and it is installed in an IBM PC w/640KB. It is more visible with a composite monitor than an RGB monitor, but it appears with both types of display. Anyone have any ideas of what may be causing it and how it can be fixed? It seems to be centered in between dithered patterns, and maybe only to the red/yellow (intense or not) combination. This does not happen with my "new" IBM CGA card.
