The following is a simulation of what I am experiencing. It is VERY close to the actual effect. Unfortunately the effect cannot be captured in a screenshot. A digital camera taking a pic of the monitor screen might do it, but... this is close enough to demonstrate. Picture here...

I originally thought this was an issue with the LCD's anti-glare coating, but it is something much more bizarre. Basically, if I use some monospaced "system" fonts in my IRC or Telnet windows (fonts like Fixedsys, Terminal), the font will ghost across the screen. This ghosting is only visible...

Beautiful monitor, but mine came with a glaring green stuck-pixel. It showed up on black and, for being only one tiny little pixel, was one heck of an eye-sore. :( Slight backlight seepage near the top right corner, too. I know no LCD is guaranteed to be perfect... but my 1702FP was perfect...

Thanks for the info... now that I'm home, I see that you can add resolutions. Apparently this is not recommended (a warning pops up, the text thereof I cannot recall) :/ But! Yes, it is possible. Did you try your experiment on a widescreen LCD, shabby? :) My remaining problem is that my card...

Sweet! Thanks :)
