Hello,
I got 2 identical 19" 1901FP Dells. I recentley got a 7800gtx with dual dvi out. SO naturally i i setup the second tft on dvi, and the picture is awesome. then i noticed the picture on the primary is slightly faded, like the contrast has been turned up or something. just dont seem to be as rich and vibrant as the secondary now.
What could be cuases for this ? i have reset both to factory defaults and still the same, Any ideas or things i can try ?
Did you buy the 2 monitors at the same time?
LCD colour could fade over time. My 2001FPs don't look the same too due to backlight aging.
And make sure the colour setting in your monitor is the same (i.e. both using blue preset)

I just set the tfts to both use the blue preset, and uhm it dont look right lol. Do you seriously mean to use the blue preset
?
Blue preset is just a lazy way to get them using the same profile for you to compare them. I use the custom preset 50,50,50Originally Posted by Rec0il
It they still doesn't look the same then you'll have to manually calibrate them to show the same colour.
I think nview have the display wizard. Or you can do it on the monitor (colour custom preset).

If you want to do it properly then invest in one of these - http://www.colorvision.ch/products/p...er2express.php
Exactly... at work, I have two identical CRT monitors. One is more faded than the other b/c the idiot that used that one before me kept it on 24/7.
Lights fade. Or it could be a manufacturing error. If you reset them both to defaults, then it;s probably bad quality control
I have two identical Samsung screen's (well bought together, but date of manufacture is different) and the contrast on one is slightly higher than the other but unfortunately I can't make it identical by the screen settings, just change it...
It's definitely something you will get used to however annoying.. At least it isn't an army of dead pixels! That would be much worse!
