    LG L246WP-BN Screen Flickers

    Flickering is expected. You need to either turn on v-sync or boost up the FPS. I also have the buzzing sound. If I were to rank the loudest components in my system on average it would be: Gigabyte 8600GTS Silent-pipe (buzzing coil, loud at 85fps, very loud at 100+ fps) > hard drive when...

    LG L246WP-BN power-saving mode problem fix and shopping experience :)

    After three weeks of testing with Nvidia 163.18 and 163.75 driver-sets I've not seen the problem come back yet. I used the middle DVI port instead of the bottom one. A friend of mine has the same setup as me. He mentioned that he's been getting problems using the bottom DVI port so that's what...

    LG L246WP-BN power-saving mode problem fix and shopping experience :)

    Thanks n00bie. Recently I discovered that this power saving thing is not related to video card drivers. (1) shut down windows (2) powered off the PC but left monitor on (3) monitor went into power saving mode for a few minutes (4) powered on the PC (5) monitor would not power on until...

    Vista "reduced functionality" is coming

    I just had to reply to this because it's been a while since I read anyone make a rational opinion. Kudos to you! Unfortunately I've seen couple friends fall into believing only information they read and stubbornly fail to realize their blind mistake. If anyone could give me a reasonable...

    LG L246WP-BN Screen Flickers

    This monitor has no flickering on my PC. However, since you mentioned you tested on consoles, would you mind setting the monitor to use HDMI TV mode? The timing parameters are different between TV and console so please check that first.

    Fix for no HD Audio in Windows Server 2003 x64 w/ SP2

    I've a RealTek HD audio but their latest drivers R1.76 only tries to apply one of the supported OS's outdated hotfix (kb888111) to the system. The SP2 is newer than RealTek's patch so the update gets abandoned by the hotfix. Although USB audio works that's not my goal because I also need a...

    LG L246WP-BN power-saving mode problem fix and shopping experience :)

    Actually I politely asked for this. One of the junior employees opened the box but a senior employee took him out back to berate him. Then, no test. I'm a pretty reasonable person. When it comes to reasoning with difficult people it's takes a set of entirely different personalities to do that.

    LG L246WP-BN power-saving mode problem fix and shopping experience :)

    Hello fellow members! Just checking in to let you know I'm also tending to the previous poster's idea that this may be a software issue. I'm still trying to find how to get the current timing parameters off of the video card but this has not been a trivial feat. I've only come across tools...

    LG L246WP-BN power-saving mode problem fix and shopping experience :)

    Did you know Samsung and LG offers 0 dead pixel policy within 30-days in Korea and Australia and that no where else in the world enjoys this benefit? We've over 300 monitors in just one lab at work and not one has any defect of any kind. I find that very ironic, maybe consumers are getting...

    LG L246WP-BN power-saving mode problem fix and shopping experience :)

    Issue It doesn't matter if the resolution is 1024x768 or 1920x1200. Anything out the DVI -> HDMI to the display causes the monitor to get stuck in power saving mode after 10 to 15 seconds of powers off. The monitor's blue light will turn orange. Count to 15 seconds then move your mouse or press...
