Have you actually tried 1152x720@160Hz? From my experience, it doesn't do anything higher than 154hz in the nvidia control panel. If yours works, I would love to know why mine doesn't lol.
A cool utility that I came across:
Nvidia Custom Resolutions Backup Tool
Backup saved nvidia resolutions
I'm really liking 1152x720 @ 154hz. I'm finding newer games nowadays don't have UI scale or anything so chat boxes are extremely hard to read at anything lower than that.
Hmm interesting. Unreal Tournament and Quake are absolutely fantastic at that resolution. I have to say I'm in love with this monitor again. I've been using 1440x900 @120hz for normal desktop usage and have zero complaints.
Hey guys can you clear something up for me? Just for fun I've been playing around with human benchmark (clicking reaction test) I notice I get similar results with my 144hz 1080p monitor and the FW900 @ 1920x1200 85hz. However, when I switch to 800x600 @ 160hz I get much better results. I don't...
Appreciate the info.
Actually now that I think about it I had no issues with ATI, but then again that was a different FW900. With NVIDIA playing with the gpu/display scaling options it does seem to have an affect. I'm wondering if using ToastyX CRU program is somehow interfering..I will do...
Hi guys. Is there a way to correct the ASC button? I remember my old FW900 had no issue stretching 4:3, but this one I'm currently using doesn't stretch at all.
This is awesome thanks. I was searching for exactly this a few weeks ago. Any chance you could share your auto hotkey macros? I play UT99, but I would like to try and find the exact sensitivity with and without DirectInput.
Glad to see this thread still active and Uncle Vito still posting. I'm thinking about selling mine. It has some problems - It was over bright and had to be corrected in windas, it doesn't seem that sharp, and the colors don't seem that great, but maybe that could be a calibration issue. What's a...
Ever since I did the WinDAS to fix the brightness problem it's been going great up until the past week. Now it blurs out for a second and a pop noise is heard then it goes back to normal. It's sorta freaky I was playing a game during the time it happened, I thought my vision went out :eek:
The colors seem kind of dull and whites are sort of greyish. I wonder if the tube is just worn out or if I just have to calibrate it better. I might play with the drive_max setting.
Thanks everyone. I taped all the wires together and finally manged to get them in. My defualt G2 value was 143 I changed it to 120 and it looks amazing compare to what it was before. It also let's me do the image restoration process.
My winDAS cabled arrived today. Just curious how long did it take you guys to connect it? I've been at it few about an hour and a half now and it's so extremely tedious to get them in there.
Thanks you have been really helpful. Where did you purchase your RLC-3 cable from? And yeah I'm stoked about getting this awesome monitor up and running again.
It's really bright even if brightness is set to 0 and image restoration doesn't work. So I need the rlc-3 ttl cable and that hooks up to the SB To TTL converter?
Can someone recommend me a WinDAS cable to buy?
I was watching this youtube video on how to adjust the g2 value
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kpbveKhYfn4
he recommends
USB To TTL / COM Converter Module buildin-in CP2102
I'm a little confused though, In the video @ 1:20 he has something...
Is my monitor done for? Every time I try to do an image restore it completely turns off right after. When I turn it back on it has to warm up. Also, shouldn't the menu be right in the center? I've noticed mine was way to the left.
My FW900 was working great until a few days ago, I powered it up and it flickers green for a few seconds, but it goes away... is this a sign that it's going out? Also...is this a good bnc cable...
I got a few questions I should have researched this a bit further, but I bought a dvi to vga cable specifically this. Would it have been a better choice to have went with dvi to bnc? I notice when I'm on a black screen my mouse trials extremely bad I assume this is lag?
Sony still carries the bezel
#407750001 is the front bezelwe still have this part available.
#873300761 is the CRT (glass)No longer available
I'm more interested in the glass, any US place still have them? I highly doubt it.
That's odd, it should automatically adjust. Here's the installation tut:

Worst case scenario is it doesn't work, just uninstall it and it will be the same as it was with windows.
It most certainly is a driver problem. You can give the one I created a try:

There are also some other drivers posted on the forum along with how to install it correctly.
My friend recently acquired this monitor. It appears to have a yellowish tint. Will windas fix this? This is even after the monitor is warmed up. He has done image restoration and tried different color settings.
Here is the driver that I made, seems to be working great on W7 64bit.
