    Anyone using 4850 with 2 monitors?

    This is getting rare. I called my dealer and told him about the problem of my 4850. He told me he had reproduced the exact same problem with other 4850s (Powercolor, ATI & Gigabyte) and he said that this is ATI driver bug. He told me not to send the card to him for replacement and all ATI...

    Anyone using 4850 with 2 monitors?

    I don't think it's overheating. I'm using an aftermarket heatsink and load temp is only 55C. Also, overclocking from 625 to 630MHz isn't much at all. If I only use a single DVI port, I can overclock over 700MHz without any issues. H-street, thanks a lot for helping to test. When I...

    Anyone using 4850 with 2 monitors?

    I'm having problem with an ATI 4850 and dual monitors setup. When I use the Catalyst Control Panel to overclock the card even for 5MHz, the sytem will crash under a dual montior configuration. I can overclock fine if I only connect 1 monitor. If anyone using a 4850 with dual monitor setup...

    Need help from a Benq FP241W User

    I also don't know what the White Balance actually does, but the thing is the White Balance keeps increasing everyday I checked. It was at 562 when I bought it in Feb 2008 and now it becomes 901 today, and keeps increasing everyday. It will go over a thousand in about a month.

    My BenQ FP241 has arrived

    500cd/m2 is no joke. I also can't stand the default brightness, but setting the brightness too low will ruin the color. What I did is to use a customised color setting, here is what I use: Use standard picture mode Brightess: 30 Contrast: 30 Sharpness: 2 Choose a user color temperature...

    Need help from a Benq FP241W User

    10e, thanks again for the help. I don't know why my montor behaves like this. Since I don't use the component input too much, I won't be bothering to send it for service.

    Need help from a Benq FP241W User

    I now discovered why my factory settings was gone. Each time I use the component input on the Benq, all values in factory settings would be changed to 127 (such as Rgain, Ggain, etc) and this has caused the shift of color. Even I remove the component input and switch to VGA, all those factory...

    Serious Problem with BenQ FP241W

    The green line on the HDMI input has been a known issue for this monitor. I don't think there is a fix. However, you can turn on the overscan mode in the montor menu and this should remove the green line. Unfortunately, you will lose some of your picture due to overscan. Also, this will no...

    Need help from a Benq FP241W User

    For some unknown reason, all my factory settings on the Benq FP241W has gone wild, maybe caused by static or something. This has resulted the color in my VGA input changed dramatically to the point I can't clearly view the text. Can some Benq FP241W user pls help and post your factory config...

    Serious Problem with BenQ FP241W

    Hi 10e, thanks for confirming the ATI & Benq issues. At least I know I'm not alone. I'm currently using ATI CCC 8.3 which fixed "No Signal" problem (issue #2 in my original post). The Benq support sucks, the tech support guy that I talked to was clueless. He didn't even know what ATI is...

    Serious Problem with BenQ FP241W

    Thanks for the info. BTW, I've fixed issue #1. The problem only occur when the Monitor is connected to my Asus 3650 DVI Port #2 (this card has 2 DVI ports). When I connect it to Port #1, the problem doesn't occur. However, I still don't see how a graphics card DVI Port can affect the HDMI...

    Serious Problem with BenQ FP241W

    Menelmarar, thanks a lot for the reply. I've already contacted BenQ and they told me they will contact me again in 2 to 3 days. I will really appreciate if you can help to test item 1 when you're back home just to check if you still see the DVI input even if you switch the input to HDMI. As...

    Serious Problem with BenQ FP241W

    I've purchased a Benq FP241W montior and it's giving me a lot of problems. Can any FP241W owner confirm if their monitors also have these issues? TIA! 1) The monitor has DVI & HDMI ports, but these 2 ports seem to be physically connected internally which means you can only connect 1 device...
