Strange Flexview issue

#1 Post by gg3761 » Sat Jun 19, 2004 9:25 pm

On my new T-42 w/Flexview i get this strange "shadow" along the right side of the display. This from on axis. If i shift my head to the right it goes away. You only notice it when there is a white or whiteish background. It starting to bug me. It is of no color just a greyish discoloration. It subtle but noticable. The left side a no such effect. I remember a similar post but i don't think it got resolved. Is this "normal"? If i send it back will i have the same problem. I also have no bad pixels.
Also maybe not related but when the desktop is black in color & the room dark i notice light colored distortions around the perimeter of the screen mostly on the left side. I've tried different color settings & no change. The brighter the screen the less i notice the shadow effect.
Any ideas? :?:

Yes, I posted a thread a few days ago with a similar issue. Someone mentioned a fix, but it wasn't a permanent fix. Personally, I no longer notice it. From what other people replied, it didn't seem like it would be fixed if you sent back for a new unit.

I have the identical problem. It almost seems like the edge of the monitor is being viewed from an angle. It sure appears to be a design flaw (or manufacturing, shouldn't blame the engineer, since I'm one...) :)

I don't plan on sending mine back, but I will sure watch this forum, and elsewhere for any further development on the subject.
