Do you know if on your monitor it works on Component 2 also? Does the number of the port make any difference? Because from the discussion I've read, it seems to. I'm running my 360 on Component 2 and 1080p definately doesn't work there.

are you certain that the xbox360 doesnt support 1080p over component? Because its listed in the options, and it seems like it should output it...

I've also had problems with 1080p over Component for the Xbox360. A lot of the time it says "frequency out of range" and other times an image shows up but its seriously squished horizontally - by using the "wide" mode I'm able to make it look pretty normal, but regardless of the image size the...

So I hooked up an Xbox360 to my Gateway today but when I tried to do 1080p over Component 2 it said "frequency out of range". I know other people have gotten the same message, but I was wondering if people had narrowed it down to a manufacturing defect or just a flaw in the design?

Darv, thanks a lot for your reply - I was looking around on the display options and I think you hit it on the head. The monitor I have hooked up to the VGA right now can go up to and higher then 1920*1200 in the display options (even though it doesn't support it), so it looks like on the FX5600...

That box is greyed out on my control panel. My monitor is showing up as "Plug and Play monitor" and not as the gateway, is this normal?

I just got my FPD2485W today and so far it seems great - only problem is that I can't get it to run at 1920*1200 - it doesn't show up in the windows display options. I have a GeForce FX 5600 and I'm running windows Xp. I'm pretty sure the 5600 chipset can support this resolution because I...

I've had my monitor for about two years - a Samsung SyncMaster 172x, and I've cleaned it maybe about 2 times, total. I know I should do it more, but I'm afraid of doing it wrong so I don't do it at all. =[

Saw on their website that shipping is free until Jan.24. Sweeeet, I was thinking about buying from them soon, and the free shipping is nice since they normally charge like 55 bucks :eek:

You said you have your Xbox360 hooked up to it - have you tried running it in 1080i or 1080p? I was wondering, because it seems like a common resolution for 22" monitors is something X 1050, and thats just a little short of 1080...does anybody know if it would cut off pixels, or squish the image...

Hi all, I'm looking for a 21" LCD monitor with component input, but the catch is I would really like to spend under or around $400. So far the ones I've looked at are the Gateway FPD2185W and the Samsung 215TW but the problem is, both of these monitors are around $500 - Gateway charges $50 for...
