Hi all, My boss is running Windows XP an old Dell with an ATI x1950 AGP card that I put in it a while back, in order to get him going with dual monitors. He has two 22" Chimei LCDs, both connected via DVI. This worked like a charm for over a year, until Tuesday. I don't know what, if...

I just picked up this board, and I have yet to flash the BIOS at all. I also was wondering what BIOS to use. I think there are actually two beta BIOS that have been posted since the last official one. I don't have any idea where there are release notes for any of them. Also, for anyone who...

To more accurately answer the question asked, I do have the latest ATI driver installed. And I am still running the VGA connection, but I'm not too happy about that. :( Nathan

I have no clue where to find a driver for this monitor. The Chimei site isn't too helpful. Any thoughts? Nathan

Thank you for the theory. However, perhaps I gave the impression that the blackouts were short-lived. That is not the case. Rather, once the screen has been black for a few seconds, I can be confident that it will stay that way until I reboot. And then it is pretty likely to repeat the...

I have a Chimei CMV 221D 22" LCD. I have noticed recently that frequently my screen will blank out during the boot process. When I am booting Vista, everything is usually fine through at least the initial booting screen (the usual scrolling bar page like most recent Windows have), but at some...

LOL I ordered one after asking to no response. So far, I'm happy, though I haven't done much with it. Vista is giving me a hard time with running Madden, so I haven't done any real gaming on it. Similar story with my HDTV card drivers. For now, it is looking pretty good. I have no reason...

I will say that I just received my Chimei 22" from Newegg. It is supposed to be the same screen as the rest of the 22" crowd that is out now, and I certainly don't have any immediate complaints. I'll have to wait and see whether it is truly great, but it looks nice for now. The price was $299...

I just got a Chimei 22" widescreen. I have only tried it with DVI, but the auto-adjust button seems to do nothing for me. I am thinking that with DVI, since the digital information is sent, there is nothing to "automatically" adjust. With an analog signal, the screen might need to do some...

Well, I haven't been able to get any recommendations in my other thread, so I am considering the Chimei 221D. It is my understanding that Chimei makes the panels for essentially all of the current generation of 22" widescreen panels, correct? And as such, the only real differences are in such...

Ummm... bump. Let me approach this a different way. I have a Viewsonic VA720. I am looking to get a new monitor that is bigger and better. Ideally, I'd like it to cost less than $400. I do want DVI. I do want to be able to watch some video and play games on it. I don't have any need...

Hi all, I have tried to read through a fair number of the posts on some of the current LCD models, particularly some of the 22" LCD models, like the Samsung and the Viewsonic. While I appreciate that there are diverging opinions on whether these current models are good enough for true...
