    Recommend 27inch low response time @ 60hz LCD

    Hi sorry to have to submit a "help me find the best LCD.." thread but I can't find any resources that simply lay out 60hz response times for monitors. I am considering the ASUS VG27 144hz monitor, which has a great response time @ 120hz/144hz but is ~7.9 @ 60hz. Can anyone recommend a good...

    Question: If my geometry is off and I'm unable to get it right using windas, would a degauss wand/coil be worth checking out? Has anyone used one on a fw900 and what were your results?

    Just want to say how sweet this monitor is. I've owned it now for a year, and though the geometry isn't dead on, nor is the PQ as great as it could be with some windas, it's still such a great display. I just purchased a brand new 2010 63" plasma and have owned many LCDs, both monitors and TVs...

    I've bought 2 ecs cables, both needed the wires to be rearranged in order to work with windas. Have you tried that? Also, not sure why but both cables I've bought have stopped working, I seem to only have luck with them for a short period of time after purchase. It's really frustrating when...

    Depends on your graphics card, but you're right, rolling back to an older driver may improve fps. I have a laptop with a 8600M GT and after installing new drivers a while ago I saw major drops in performance in some 3D apps and games. I tested a bunch of the archived drivers and found 186.81...

    Anyone else have a problem getting the geometry tracking right? I can't seem to fix it via the windas procedure, it just gets more out of whack. Anyone have any tips?

    Just curious if there is any more in-depth information on windas tweaks.. I just finally noticed that my CONTRAST was set to 255 instead of 220 (original settings) and that was what caused my fw900 to really "bloom" whites and crush blacks, and it also made convergence errors much more...

    Sorry it's been awhile since I last used windas. I figured out that the security key error was from not having "patched" windas. I did this and can now get into F3. Problem is now that I either get a Check Bus Line/Connection msg or Windas MFC crashes. Does an ECS cable for Fw900 have to have a...

    Could someone please help me figure out why Windas doesn't appear to work for me anymore. It has in the past until the cable I used stopped working. This left my monitor's OSD locked and my understanding is that the only way to unlock it is via windas. So i've ordered another cable from...

    Does anyone know how to reset a fw900? My OSD is locked and windas no longer works, I get the Check monitor or bus line condition message. I've tried switching around the RX/TX cables but can't get windas working again =(

    Does anyone know what else (besides cable) might be causing whites to shine really bright? If I have my desktop background all black and have a window with white in it it lights up around the borders of the window causing the overall brightness to increase (at least it appears so). I've lowered...

    I believe it will, I got a cable on the way and that is what I'm hoping for. Currently I have my brightness at ~10-20 to get a good black level. I have yet to calibrate the display w/ a hardware calibrator but doing my best eye calibration with the OSD and PowerStrip for color management I...

    Yea, the astro setup won't run on win7x64, at least it didn't for me. I just used my dads laptop (XP) and it worked just fine, emailed the files to my inbox. If you want I can forward the e-mail w/ attachments.. I just ordered a windas cable and am wondering whats a good hardware colorimeter...

    Black level is actually unacceptable (was used to my LCD but can clearly see the brightness behind black) so ill be doing windas. I followed the instructions on gregua/windas/ website but can't seem to get TransDll.dll RegDll.dll and LimitDll.dll files. Could someone send these to me, my...
