Now this is a bargain - Samsung 245B 24" HD Ready Monitor @ £274.99+VAT (£323.11)

I just recieved the Samsung Syncmaster 245B on friday the 31st and am sad to report that It does not work out of the box. I tried calling the OCUK international support phone number but it appears to be "not in use".

I then called Samsung reported the problem and was advised that the backlight Had likely failed and that I should OCUK.

The problem is a simple one the monitor will only display an image once turned on for a split second and then the screen goes solid black. this happens with both DVI and VGA connections. The blue power button remains a solid Blue. if I change screen resolution with the monitor set as a second screen i get an image again for a split second. also weather in single or duel monitor setup if i turn off then turn on the screen i will get an image of the desktop for a split second and then its gone.

If i disconnect the video cable from the system the blue power button will begin to flash but the screen will remain blank no error message appears advising that there is no video feed.
 
This week Only looks..... well boring ;)

I thought Ocuk were on a role cos atm everyones on that 'Lets build a Q6600' rigg, all there items last week on offer pointed towards it anyhow !

Hopefully Ocuk can do better next week and also drop the sammy down in price.
