So - realized the screen saver wasn't running either. Disconnected the mouse (had to install correct driver - fixed issue) and screen saver went and - voila! - the DVI input went to sleep like it should. I'm ecstatic! I can finally have a fully digital display that functions correctly :) No more...
Has anyone else had problems with their DVI input not going to sleep?
I've used VGA forever, because I like my monitor to automatically go to sleep when I tell it to in windows. I thought it was my graphics card (Really old)
Built a new computer, and assumed the problem would be gone -...
Hey everyone,
So I recently upgraded by Westinghouse LCM-22w2 to a BenQ G2400WD - LOVE IT...by the way.
Here's my specs:
Abit NF7-S
Athlon XP 2100+ at 12x166mhz ~2.09GHz
1 GB PC3200 DDR Ram
Radeon 9550 256mb
Win XP SP3
(hahah...I know, it's outdated...it's doing so great!! lol)...
GREAT NEWS!
Got the monitor today, and WOW! That weird halo/ring effect is gone. NO Dead pixels (I was worried I wouldn't get lucky again)! Still tearing with the DVI input, but HDMI at 1080p looks AWESOME! I have to power cycle it once or twice, but then the tearing goes away. I'm very very...
I'll finally be getting my G2400WD back from RMA from Buy.com tomorrow. It's aggravating that they just HAD to wait 7 stinkin business days to send my replacement back - I mean, come on, does it seriously take that long to look at it and send me my replacement?
Anyway, I was wondering the...
Well, got an RMA number lined up with Buy.com. I'm including some pictures and a CD with video of the tearing to help my return. It'll go in the mail in the next few days.
Has anyone noticed that when using HDMI, you can't switch inputs while the XBOX is on and go back while it's running...
Alrighty! So, I did some "recon" if you will. I took a few pictures of the backlight bleeding that I'm getting. For comparison's sake, I put my Westinghouse 22w2 (black friday 1.5 yrs ago) up using VGA and took a pic of it's backlight bleed. Don't mind the huge line down the middle, the damn...
They look like circles. I'll get a few pics.
Just tried the power cycling idea, and still the same amount of tearing. I just used the same power cord as my Westinghouse that I'm replacing, that shouldn't matter, right? I'm going to try the DVI cable on my PC tomorrow and see if anything tears...
Hey guys!
I just purchased a G2400WD on Tuesday, arrived today from Buy.com. First, a few things. I got the drivers installed off the disc, but they registered as G2400W drivers, I'm assuming that's fine?
Well, I can select 1920x1200 now, but when I do it goes off the screen. As in, I...
