Hey all,

I just purchased a 2007wfp and I have to say I LOVE it, except for 3 things. The first issue. In the lower right hand corner just above the power button there is an area that seems to be lighter than the rest of the screen. If I bend down and position myself so I am facing it head on it looks as dark as the rest of the screen. Is this a true problem or just a viewing angle thing?

Second problem. When I go from one application to the next, say, I'm browing the web and then I load up a game I get a brief flash of white stripes through the center of the screen...it's all black when this happens, as if it's a loading type thing. Is this normal?

FINALLY...when I reboot my system right before I get to the windows log on screen where I type my password my monitor goes into power save mode and I have to wiggle the mouse to get it to come out...how on EARTH do I stop this because it is driving me nuts.

As you can see, I'm new to lcds so ANY help you guys can give me will be hugely appreciated. :)
 
oh I forgot to add, I THINK I have the s-ips panel because when I go to the service menu it says RT803...which makes me question the viewing angle thing...shouldnt it be fine if it's s-ips? heh Im so lost :confused:
 
Well I have a 20.1" LG L204WT (a very good TN panel):cool: and the top half of the screen is ever so slightly darker than the bottom half but, like you, if I view it from a slightly different angle the brightness seems uniform. I created a thread about it and got 1 reply which simply said "it's normal" so I'm living with it, no big deal really.

Well, the second problem I don't have.

Can't help on the 3rd one either.
 
I own the same monitor.

1) I notice the same lighting effect around the edges of screen, mostly at bottom. It is pretty common with LCDs, nothing to worry about. There is much discussion about this all over the forums, if you look for it.

2) Never experienced this, cannot comment

3) Never experienced this either

Hope this helps.
 
thanks for the replies about the lighting issue. I'm glad it's not something to be worried about.

Now...the other two issues on the other hand worry me because nobody else seems to be having them. :eek:
