Hi,
I dont expect a definitive answer but any ideas are most welcome. I have a 22inch monitor that have been using happily for a while but yesterday decided to add my old 17inch tft as a 2nd display so i could have the formus and napster etc open while playing poker. I bought the appropriate dvi cable thingy and plugged it in today. The layout etc was no problem and to all intents and purposes its working but the picture quality is terrible! The colours are all completely off, everything has a kinda green tint to it and it all really pixelated.
I know thats not the best technical description of the problem but i was just wondering is the problem likely to be a duff monitor (it hadnt benn used for quite a while), dodgy cable/connection or just my ineptitude.
The thing is, its usable to display text, like the forums so its not hopeless but having put it in i really like the effect of the dual display so would like to get it working 100%.
I know i havent given much technical detail but maybe it screams out a particular problem? Any input is much appreciated.
