This looks like a timing problem.  Either the modeline being used in your X
config file isn't correct for the monitors, or your video card can't produce
the correct timing signals.  What type of monitors are you trying to use
with these machines?  What resolution?  Post a copy of your X Config file as
an attachment, it would help out to troubleshoot this problem.
