I have a GO7 in a Centipede and I can see little sparkles (kind of looks like Snow) that move around.

I know it's not the PCB as I swapped it with another and got the same results.

New Big Blue in the PS.

Is this a Flyback issue?
 
more than likely it is electrical interference. You can try checking the ground to the frame, but you might also check for anything that might be on the same circuit (or nearby) like an oscillating fan, refrigerator, neon sign, etc....

I am pretty sure it is a ground issue. Try tightning your grounds to make better connection and make sure your A.C. plug has the ground still connected. isolation trans. breaking down?
If all else fails just disconnect your ground wire from your A.C. connector going on your monitor chassis. This usually works 99% of the time.
