How come people in this thread have there's connected through the DVI if you're saying it doesn't have a DVI input? Very odd. Or do you mean it didn't have the cable?

It refers to the Acer, from this comment earlier

I don't quite understand why this costs so much from OCUK, the Acer AL2216W is meant to use the same panel, has very similar specs but is availible delivered to your door for £260, that's a £110 + p&p difference

And

Bought one. Said it was DVI, it wasen't, didn't even turn it on. Straight back. Might try the Viewsonic VX2235WM or Samsung SM225BW both about another £50

Past couple of days there has been a speckling effect appear pn the monitor, a reboot usually gets rid of it. Whats the score, numerous pixels are twinkling. :confused:

i feel sorry for the guys who are having troubles mine is perfect im surprised that the samsungs and acers are not having the same issues they are actually built using the same 2nd gen TN panel for some tai company

Ah sorry, I got the wrong end of the stick.

Another update my flickering green pixels are back they seem to come and go as they please, and they follow the particular picture around the screen making me think its not a pixel defect more a bigger problem, basically they follow darker shaded areas (dark greys, greens etc.) any ideas if VS will replace it?

Mine appear to have gone for the minute. Checked my cable and was a bit loose on the graphics card end, so i tightened it up and everything now appears fine. Touching wooden like desk as if it was a woman.
Hopefully that was all the problem was. :confused:

I spoke too soon got back from work and there they were again.

Thinks it almost time to get in touch with Viewsonic. :mad:

Got mine yesterday with 1 flashing green pixel but a gentle run around the area has brought it back into life.

Chaps how much light bleed are you getting from your monitors? I noticed it while watching dvd's a visible dark grey stripe on the top and bottom of the screen where it should be black.

Could someone hide there icons, remove background image and select a black desktop, I get a dark grey stripe top and bottom some on the sides too. My VX912 was perfect is this normal for large tft panels?

Cheers

it's normal for most TFT's to have some degree of panel CCFL leakage around the edges and is down to construction and build quality really. Some models it's worse than others but you could expect some slight variations in panel uniformity on most TFT's

Are people still getting problems? I noticed the first batch was pretty bad.

Also does anyone have any pics? I'm particulary interested in what a VX2235 looks like next to a VX912, anyone?

I'm having intermittent problems, sparkling pixels, lots of them.

Heartless_King · 22 Oct 2006 at 16:12

Did you buy recently??

Pizzaboy2003 · 23 Oct 2006 at 09:30

Gibbo
Are you still getting them in today?
Or are we looking next week

deadeyedic30 · 23 Oct 2006 at 15:09

Had mine about 4 + weeks now, was fine first couple annd then intermittent problems. The sparkling effect comes and goes. In two minds about whether to get in touch with Viewsonic just yet.
