    HP LP2065 DVI inactive

    I went to work and got a HP 2035 and brought it home. It did not immediately register that it was connected displaying the "check the cable" message after boot, but then I turned the monitor off by hitting the button on the face of the monitor, then turning it back on and it worked. Now that...

    HP LP2065 DVI inactive

    All the hardware is fine. At work we have the same monitors and we have a similar problem with them. Sometimes they will not recognise that the DVI is connected and will fall into sleep mode. The fix is to turn off the power saver option through windows, and turn off the monitor and...

    HP LP2065 DVI inactive

    Well, I know my screen isn't dead because I can reconnect to the old computer and works every time, through the DVI/analogue cable, it's just not recognising my new computer with its exclusively DVI graphics card anymore. I can see the message: DVI 1 not active, DVI 2 not active, even when...

    HP LP2065 DVI inactive

    Guys, I need your help. I don't seem to be able to get my HP LP2065s DVI working after connecting to an old computer with the supplied analogue/DVI cable. When I have finished on the old computer I connected my new computer to the monitor with the DVI/DVI cable as per usual but now I can't get...

    Help Finding a S-IPS monitor

    I stand corrected again - not having much luck tonight :(. I recall travbomb posting that the 2490 did not have a luminance stabilizer but here he says it does. http://www.hardforum.com/showpost.php?p=1030248467&postcount=170 Maybe her was talking about the other 2490. I'm not complaining if it...

    Help Finding a S-IPS monitor

    I stand corrected. The 2490 has a 24"WS LG.Philips H-IPS A-TW Pol (LM240WU2). I'm getting my info from TFTCentral which two days ago reported it as the AS-IPS in my previous post which was a copy-paste. Looks like they just updated. Dot pitch, colour gamut and luminance stabilizer are the...

    Help Finding a S-IPS monitor

    Got to http://www.tftcentral.co.uk/ and type "S-IPS" in the panel search box and select "panel" in the adjacent drop down to get a list of all S-IPS monitors. Or you could try these lists: http://aryarya.net/wassyoi/lcdmemo.html http://axofiber.no-ip.org/inside/monitor.lcd.panels.htm...

    Benefits of Dual Monitors

    Well, I'm a designer/CAD user/IT manager where I work and I tried a dual monitor set up but found it didn't work for me. It may work if you've got two primary programs that you need to use equally for most of your day but if you've got 3, 4, 10 apps (with some of them like your webbrowser...

    NEC LCD2690

    Well that's great, but unfortunately NEC don't back up their apparent excellent service with written guarantees. As I've already mentioned in this thread I am gathering together all the warranties and dead pixel policies of the major LCD monitor players in Australia here --->...

    NEC LCD2690

    I can't wait for your review Manny. I think I'm leaning towards the 24 but there appears to be little info on it as I'm sure you're aware. Btw, I like your strategy of buying a backup 24, juuust in case :D.

    NEC LCD2690

    Well, if they're "A-grade" panels that rarely fail there shouldn't be too many of them that need throwing away, right? Surely you cannot accept that it's okay for an unused monitor out of the box to have muliple defective pixels, and for the consumer to have to wear it. Yes, zero dead pixels...

    NEC LCD2690

    Thx ToastyX, that's the kind of information (with full graphic presentation to back it up - I bet you own a laser pointer) we need from you early adopters. Can I ask, is the stand height adjustable in portrait mode? And to answer one of my own question from page 36: it appears there's...

    NEC LCD2690

    As you should. Waranties and dead pixel policies are usually completely different in the US, and different again in Europe, but the product hasn't changed. Still would like to see some dead pixel coverage; any time period will do just as long as it gives me time to whip the monitor out of the...
