Dell 2001FP problem PICTURE SHOWN

[dannybek]

Hi, I'll get straight to the point.

I had the 2001FP for approximately two months now. I began to notice a faded black color kinda of a greyish or "brighter black" color on a large portion of my screen whenever I have a dark or black background. Should I send it back under warranty? I centainly did nothing for this to happen, and it tends to get quite annoying.

On a side note, the problem starts on the top right and moves down, you can notice it in the picture

Common guys, speak to me, it is as if I am invisible.

Do you have any electrical devices in the vicinity of the
effected portion of the screen (speakers, stereo, etc..).

Have you tried to Manually Degauss the monitor?

Yes, I would most definately send that in under warranty.

Nothing, I tired factory settings and all. Well it had a sub-pixel too, perhaps the new one will be free of pixels and defects.

IIRC, when this monitor was on Hot Dealage late last year there were a few peeps who were unhappy with the light leakage, which is what you are experiencing. I would RMA that puppy. I have one, but mine seems to be okay from a light leakage perspective. Occasionally I will have trouble when booting, in that the screen goes black after POST, but power cycling it seems to fix the problem.
