I've also had a less than 100% experience with Eclipse

I bought the top-rated budget computer at the end of last year (the Eclipse Elite i675n86gt, obviously before reading consumer reviews) and have had a problem with a red tint on monitor since it arrived.

Under advice I have changed the chipset under BIOS to point to the graphics card on the motherboard - by changing from BIOS chipset option 'primary display adapter' from "PCI" to "onboard" and plugged the VGA cable into the motherboard.

This has fixed the problem or at least provided a workaround.

Also since the graphics card is actually PCI-EXPRESS and the BIOS was initially set to PCI I tried changing the 'primary display adapter' to PCI-EXPRESS but to my surprise this didn't fix the problem.

I could live with not having my £50 graphics card as Eclipse say: "you would need to return the system back to us at your own expense, to which, providing the warranty seals have not been tampered with ...."

unfortunately I now have a BIG complication - as of yesterday I ejected the DVD tray and its now stuck !! in the "out" position. So it would be v hard to post it with its tray out ... and getting a
(wo)man to fix it would invalidate the warranty ???!!!!

any advice on trading standards/ sale of good act/ stuck DVD trays would be much appreciated (seen tips on web for dealing with DVD trays jammed in - but not out)
