Need Help with 32" Monitor (WORKS & NOW WITH PICS)

I cant seem to get this 32" Monitor fired up. It has ever port, including the VGA port, but when I plug the VGA plug to the monitor nothing happens. It says 0 hz or something like that? Whats the matter?

Can you describe the problem a little better? Is it a tv/monitor? Is it an LCD or CRT? Can you take a picture?

Amoroso · Jul 5, 2005

its a LCD tv/monitor....

I just booted it up with the monitor I was using before, and Im royally screwed, when I reboot my main rig in the sig Im using I get this, and the comp doesnt do nothing, I type any letter and it doesnt do anything. Im freaking outtttt, im using a laptop right now to type this....

this is the error I get when the system boots up

non-system disk or disk error

Amoroso · Jul 5, 2005

Think Im going to bring it back:

Problems: Boiling sound coming from the back of the screen, sounds like its boiling water only when its in VGA mode which is really weird. Resolution is good for television, and its good for leisure internet use, and its really not bad for gaming. I was playing CS and I still had it going on lol. Just the resolution once again is alittle too big for gaming. Also the width of the screen streches out the picture but I guess thats widescreen for you. Also Im an junior in college doing architecture major and this is crucial cause this can effect my 3D modeling, Autocad, and Photoshop, cause Im seeing a image thats actually wider than it is, and when I go to print it, it might not be the same size I expect it to be... so I guess its back to the 20.1" ViewSonic LCD.

Color and quality is great

Yuriman · Jul 6, 2005

Well, since you are taking it back, I can recomend the Dell FPW2405. Its only 24" (only, lol) but it goes up to 1920x1200 and at that resolution, the pixels are properly shaped.

Albaholic · Jul 6, 2005

Yeah, I'll second that reccomendation. I have one and im loving it

Amoroso · Jul 13, 2005

Returned it, and using the 20.1" Viewsonic that I love so much now lol

Since I was actually looking at that particular model about a week ago at Costco I am glad I didn't get it instead I purchased

take a look at the specs. its an 8ms Panel and I have been playing around with it for the better part of a week I can say with all sincerity that I think its a terrific panel for the price and I love playing my Xbox and TV in split screen mode. If you are still on the market for a 32" FP then take a look at this one.

can't believe you bought a proview. that brand is awful.

mcoleg · Jul 18, 2005

if you can find a 30" olevia localy, check it out, it's really nice.

murdok5 · Jul 19, 2005

not to mention the dell is the SAME price he paid for that...and a much better screen IMO
