Anyone had any luck with the registration for this?

Superficial · 14 Dec 2007 at 12:38

One thing that never fails to amaze me is just how neat and tidy all of you keep your computer/desk space.

Is this more like it.

Never got round to ordering one of these, reading through the last few pages, it seems ppl are still happy with them. So passed the time test

That still looks neat.

You DONOT want to see the state of my computer space. It has a proper lived in look, complete with dusty remote controls, chewing gum, empty envelopes with little notes written on them, CD marker pens, dental floss and the list goes on.

Just got mine, The stand is easy to put on as it will only go on one way but without no tilt I find mine is tilting forwards where as if anything I'd prefer a slight tilt backwards is everyones the same ? not got it working yet.

It does tilt, mine clicked at first. But now it doesnt make any clicking sound, odd.

jetski · 14 Dec 2007 at 15:11

Right just got it set up, My problem with the tilt going forwards if anyone expierences this was it can tilt but mine was tightened so tight I felt it would break the plastic so I undone the 4 screw on the upper part of the stand where behind is a metal bracket I managed to slacken off the nuts which in turn gave me the movement in the bracket but it was a hell of a job to find something to fit but all done now. I've managed to connect by dvi and must say Wow, takes abit of getting used to but so far so good ,Excellent

I got mine earlier, but only just got it set up and it's a brilliant monitor, although 1 dead red pixel and the blue light of doom it's pretty good seeing as it's on a stable desk.

That's a good name for it! I'm going to find some blue-tac to put over it....far, far too bright

Countcussy · 14 Dec 2007 at 15:39

colour some masking tape with a black felt tip. Cut to size and then place over the Led. End up with a dull blue light. Perfect.

I'm sure it looks a lot better...too much hassle for me. Blue-tac ***!

Countcussy · 14 Dec 2007 at 15:44

LOL.

Thats what i did at first.

allllec · 14 Dec 2007 at 16:13

Im torn between this and the 20" model.

One thing that concern's me is the amount of people saying they have dead pixels? what's ocuk's policy on this?

I'm not sure of the official policy, but it'll be something stupid like 10 and they'll have to be 'dead' not stuck. There's three of us recently that have got them and all had 0 stuck/dead so it may be the first lot were a bad batch...

Hmm, okay cheers.

Also it was mentioned before but i fail at finding it again. How much does the monitor weigh?

Also, anyone able to messure the distance between the bottom Vesa mount screw whole and the bottom of the monitor(not stand) please?
