So I hooked up my Wii to my newly attained 2407wfp-hc (oh I am so happy) but the image is grainy. The Wii's outputting 480p and I expected it to be better in image quality or is this common for this monitor?
 
I doubt that there is a fault with your monitor, I believe that the component input on the 2407 is rather poorly designed and image quality through it is much worse than the DVI input. Also scaling 480p to 1080p is a difficult thing to do well with an expensive video processor, so the cheap scaler in the 2407 will be struggling with that too.
 
I don't know why but it seems that any input other than the usual DVI or VGA on desktop monitors is sub-par to what you get on tv's. I have a NEC 20WMGX2 and the VGA is better than component for Xbox 360.
 
well as long as I'm not alone on this than ALL is good... I THINK... Arg to this though...
 
I did the same thing with my Wii.
It took me 20 minutes to re-install back the Wii to my CRT...

Is there a solution to this problem? I don't have a TV; I want to get a monitor I can use with my Wii and have it look good. Can I convert the component input to DVI or VGA?
