Hello all ! It arrived at long last Im using Dual Dvi ! Although Im a bit dissapointed with Dual Dvi function though not sure how to just use web pages in one screen.

Hmm its strange i nortices black lines across the screen. is this the film on the TFN or is it defective. its quite faint but shows up to be noticeble !

Bloody hell!, damping wires on a TFT!

[azrael1]

I phone dup Sony they said that shouldnt be there but they were unsure as it was so new.

I will try a different dvi cable and a different video card just to make sure its not that !

I will arrange a replacement and see if the repalcement has the problems !

Are these all the way down and across the screen - or just one or two lines? If it's pretty consistent across the screen, it would tend to suggest a cable/setup type problem. If it's more localised, that would tend to suggest a fault in the panel and/or driver circuitry. Still, who really knows - it's such a new display it could be anything!

Let us know how you get on.

its from left to right only !
Im lucky I have a spare DVi cable and a spare 9700 radeon to test it with !
Well let you all know once its been fixed or confirmed its the way its created I will take a few pics if someone can host them for me ?

[azrael1]

Well same effect with a spare DVI cable and spare laptop and spare video card ! Cries !!! Have to RMA it ! Sony support think I should just return it as its soo new !

So what's the status? Did you RMA it to Sony? I would've thought a straight swap from the retailer would have been quickest - if they had a spare one in stock, that is?

Where did you get it!!?? I WANT ONE!!!!
I just hope the bezel is small and black, then it sounds like the perfect tft!

Hmm appears to only do 16.2 colours, not 16.7..

[azrael1]

Hello

Yeah I spoke to Sony and I spoke to the company and theyre arranging a pick up and soon as they get that i will get a repalcement YAY !

[gamesaregood]

I hope you get this sorted mate

When you do we all want to see pictures

So this black line is it a straight line of pixels along the top of the screen or what ?

[Gipo]

Where did u get for 450!? Really shouldn't ask as i just bought a viewsonic vx910

[billbennett]

how did it go about getting your screen sorted azrael1?? as i have just received the same screen with the same problem,i have the lines going across the screen diagonally and they are best described as foggy lines,i think its in the special coating of the screen and only visable on dark black/grey screens when scrolling around,they are hard to see but once you have noticed them you are always looking for them and very annoying.
