<div>Here’s one that’s had me scratching my head today...</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Just bought this monitor for the too-good-to-be-true price of 69GBP (inc
delivery). Two problems – the colours are “rotated” so that RGB is
actually appearing as GBR and there’s what looks like a purity problem towards
the right of screen (degauss operates, but doesn’t cure the problem). Pic
attached.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I’ve had the lid off and it’s not like someone could have wrongly plugged
RGB to the CRT base board (for example). The OSD menu is affected so the
wrong colours problem has to be in the RGB domain.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>No problem with rejecting, getting a refund, etc – but has anyone come
across a similar problem with these monitors? Very weird fault. (But
not once you understand it, of course!) Current thinking is that it must
be a duff CRT.</div></div></div></div></div><br><br><br>______________________________________________<br>Please trim posts to relevant info when replying.<br><br>Change subject to reflect thread direction.
