    23" verses 24"

    I can't compare 23" and 24" for you because I have never used a 23" display. However, I happen to be a new 24" monitor user. I have been using one for 1 month now, and the previous display I had was a 17", so that was a significant jump as for the size. And I can assure you that I have no...

    Glossy Non-TN 22-24"?

    Perhaps you may like to add the Samsung 245T to your list (or is there any reason why you didn't do so?). This is a 24" PVA monitor. I saw one yesterday in a shop and it looked awesome.

    24" Monitor not for gaming

    I use this display with a PC. Connection is with a VGA cable (coz my video card only has a VGA port). The HP LP2465 looks good. However, it was not an option for me, as not available in my geography at the time I purchased the Samsung. Did you consider the Acer, LG and Dell models? If you...

    24" Monitor not for gaming

    I have a Samsung 245B that I have been using for a few weeks. I am satisfied with it although I can't compare it to 24" monitors. I use it mainly for office work (email, text editing, web surfing...) and an occasional movie watching. I think 24" wide is a good size as it is really like having...

    Problem connecting a new LCD monitor to an "old" PC

    Good news! I finally managed to make it work using RivaTuner. After I started RivaTuner, it detected the features of my graphics card, and the presence of the NVIDIA ForceWare drivers. Then, under Main -> Driver Settings -> Customize -> Custom Display Modes / Refresh Rate Wizard, I selected...

    Problem connecting a new LCD monitor to an "old" PC

    They all want me to buy a new card! :) Thanks for your answer, defaultluser ! Can you explain why you think that DVI is essential for resolutions higher than 1280x1024?

    Problem connecting a new LCD monitor to an "old" PC

    I realize that well. I observe that sometimes, answers given by some posters are inaccurate or even wrong, but I don't necessarily always mention it (especially when it doesn't have an impact on my search for an answer), by courtesy for those who took their time to reply to my post. I have used...

    Problem connecting a new LCD monitor to an "old" PC

    OK, so you suggest me to try Rivatuner, which TheCobra had advised me not to do. Anyway, the forum topics's links that you posted are encouraging. So, I will try Rivatuner (with caution) and post results later.

    Yes, I did all this. See my initial post.

    Problem connecting a new LCD monitor to an "old" PC

    Thanks Fix Me. I am glad that you managed to make your 19" widescreen monitors with the GeForce2 MX/MX400 video cards.That's encouraging for me. By the way, which refresh rate do you use? Of course, I had installed the latest drivers for the card a long time ago as I mentioned in my initial...

    Problem connecting a new LCD monitor to an "old" PC

    Thanks Dazed66 and Duffmann247. In fact, according to the specs of my monitor, the 1920x1200 resolution is named WUXGA. I just think that, at the time this card was manufactured, there were simply no monitors of this size, which is why we don't see WUXGA listed in the specs of the card...
