    LG L245WP - the first S-IPS 24"

    Just a thought. I'm really interested in this monitor, but when I had a BenQ and used a HDMI cable, my desktop resolution could not reach 1920x1200. It ran a bit less, due to some restrictions on output via HDMI. Will I have the same problem on this monitor when using a HDMI to DVI cable?

    My BenQ FP241WZ

    UPDATE. I now bought a pretty expensive DVI cable. Same problem. Tried hooking the monitor up to a Dell XPS laptop. Same problem. Just moving this windows with the black and red colors around drags shadows. I guess the monitor is going back. Anyone has a alternative to what I should try out instead?

    My BenQ FP241WZ

    Cable is the one that came with the monitor, the gfx is a inno3D 800GTX. I'll try ordering a high quality dvi cable tomorrow. But I don't think ghosting is a valid RMA case, though, since my guess is that it's the standard of the screen. I've seen my number of screens and I would like to think I...

    My BenQ FP241WZ

    It's not all games that it's that bad. In Far Cry, I can barely see any ghosting. But in HL2, F.E.A.R. and S.T.A.L.K.E.R., which are all pretty dark games in places, it's very bad. So I don't think it's the cable. Pretty annoying, for a monitor this expensive...

    My BenQ FP241WZ

    Well, just got mine today. But after reading some reviews and threads on this forum, I must say I'm a bit disappointed in this monitor. First of all, the ghosting is insane. Much worse than I expected. Tested it in FEAR and Half-Life 2 so far, and the ghosting is clearly very visible. I've...

    My XBOX 360 image also looks jaggy and fuzzy. My guess is it's because of the stretching.

    Well, as mentioned some pages ago, I had problems with the DVI input on my monitor. New cable, but it's the same. Screen goes black. Then used a DVI to HDMI cable. That works but only up to 1920X1080. Furthermore, it is quite impossible to get a straight answer on how and when BenQ will...

    The VGA works fine. The DVI cable is firmly in place and I have tha latest video driver from Nvidia. Pretty annoying considering how expensive this monitor is.

    So what you're saying is the cable that comes with the monitor is defect? I guess any new cable would do then?

    24'', HDMI, P-MVA panel, 1:1 mapping required

    I just ordered the FP241WZ here in Denmark and contacted BenQ to clarify this subject. They say, that the firmware is still being tested and my monitor doesen't have this firmware intalled. Also, they can not answer me as to how I can get the firmware when it's released. :-/
