I think trying to install some Gigabyte MB apps has corrupted my recent W10 install on a new build. I am only getting a blinking cursor upon boot. My W10 was a W7 upgrade, and I don't have a boot disk yet. Is there a way to force safe mode or recover from this short of a format/reinstall...

I don't think its that popular overall. However, many of those who don't overclock probably don't know the option exists and wouldn't even think to advertise it as "never overclocked". So yeah, I would be suspicious of those listings.

So is the current Dell price ($499) about the best to expect? Any obtainable coupons out there that could get this lower?

Went ahead and bought the Vibrant. Love it so far. GPS is indeed lousy compared to my garmin and I'm guessing other phones, but it's functional as a backup. And with Samsung releasing a statement that a fix would be out in Sept, that was good enough for me to dive in.

well, maybe notorious is the wrong word, but it's certainly a dealkiller for anyone who values GPS performance. It certainly isn't an isolated problem...I see huge angry threads on all the vibrant/galaxy s forums. Nothing will get the mainstream media's attention over anything an iPhone...

I am dying to get this phone...but waiting on samsung's fix for the notorious GPS issues. Although they say they're working on it, I just can't commit until I actually see it is released.

Are there a lot of negatives to doing this? Shopping for a bigger monitor to be my primary alongside my current Dell 2007fpw. Was looking at the Dell U2410, but all the bitching on that thread has scared me off for now. Been looking into the option of using a 32in 1080p LCD TV for my...

I'm looking for a new web host to purchase my domain and host my web site. It must support mySQL and ASP. Anyone have any positive or negative feedback about Brinskter? I don't want to sign up anywhere that promotes unlimited space -- sounds like trouble if you ask me. I'm shooting for 350...

You definitely know immediately upon completion of the test whether you passed/failed. CompTIA will then mail you your card and certificate (you still get some written proof at the time of the test, though).

This has been unchecked all along, which is another reason why I am somewhat confused. Maybe it is in standby, but just won't wake. The PC fans stop though, and the fact that the power button recovers makes it seem like hibernate....dunno. :confused:

IMO the Dell lottery is worth it... After being unhappy with the Samsung 206bw and the Acer 2216, I won the Dell lotto on my first try. The difference in picture quality in Windows is stunning. In games all the panels have looked pretty good to me. I can't speak of Dells PVA panel, but my...

Congrats Nick. Just think of it this way, you'll really appreciate and probably enjoy your new monitor more than the typical user. That said, I am glad I lucked out on my first try.

Do all PVAs and S-IPSs ship from certain locs? Looks like Austin is the RT803 hotbed right now. Maybe where you live (and hence shipping origin) will determine your luck?

Woot! RT803, no dead pixels, looks beautiful so far. :) :) :D Ordered and shipped 4/24 Arrived 4/26 Made in Mexico, shipped from Austin

Got the LCD in my car, had to go pick it up at DHL...can't test it til I get home. Box says Made in Mexico, shipped from Austin. Judging on the recent replies with this info I am cautiously optimistic.

It's a lottery between S-IPS and PVA...

Anyone know if Dell/DHL tends to leave stuff at your door if no one is there to receive it? This would be in a surburban neighborhood. UPS/FedEx tend to leave computer equipment on my door all the time....with this LCD coming I am kind of weary of it just sitting there all day (and I also kind...

I am officially in the lottery, monitor shipped out of Austin. Shouldn't take long to get here since I am in Houston.

If the ones you opened weren't RT803...would you have checked the other two? ;) :cool:

I'd jump on this if I didn't dislike glossy screens. I am about to play the Dell lottery, but the last few reports aren't good. I'd like to see one more positive before I pull the trigger. Anyone getting one in soon?

No, I am afraid not. I mean they look really nice in optimal room conditions, but this monitor won't be in one.

Thanks for the response. While I game a little, I can handle some loss of PQ in games (where I imagine dark scenes are more prevalent) more than I can staring at a Windows desktop. The Samsung 215tw I had was S-PVA, and I thought it's Windows color performance was stunning. The Acer TN I am...

I am thinking of ordering one of these Dells. Lottery aside, are both panels better quality than the TNs that come in most 22 inch displays? I used a 20 inch Samsung 206bw and now have an Acer 2216. Not sure what panel the 206bw used, but the quality was quite inferior to my wife's 215tw...

Looks like the Dell is my only option. The 2025 is nowhere to be found, and the newer Viewsonics have glossy bezels. Maybe I will give Dell a shot....thanks.

I am currently looking for a good 20-21 inch LCD. I used to use a Samsung 215tw, which I loved, but gave it to my wife when her CRT died. She's a photographer, so I thought I'd give it to her since it was 8 bit and had good color accuracy. I game and do a lot of internet...
