I bought a Samsung XL30 a few weeks ago, I found that the Natural Color Expert Software did not work with Vista 64. I worked around this by using a calibrator that I had.
One of the issues that other people have reported with this monitor was something that looked like signal noise. Basically you would see little pixels flicker like you would with signal noise. I use my monitor in Custom mode and did not see this in Custom mode. I did see this problem in other modes.
That was the case up until a few nights ago. I was on the TV Guide web site and I clicked on a show, I think it was the Mentalist. While displaying this page I could clearly see the signal noise. The page had a top to bottom color gradient, maybe that was it, what causes it we will never know. I have a Nvidia card and went to the control panel, Manage Custom Resolutions. Added a new resolution that lower the refresh rate to 59.5 from 60 by adjusting the settings manually. The problem went away. I wanted to share it with others.
