Dell E248WFP monitor shifts position every time it loses signal or shuts off.

[remogaggi]

I have a Dell E248WFP monitor. Every time it loses signal (IE turning off/on the computer), the entire screen will move about 1/8" down and to the right. This problem has been replicated with different computers and DVI cables. This problem is easily remedied by opening up the monitor options on the monitor itself and telling it to reset to factory default settings for "Position Only." Turn the monitor off, and I have to reset position all over again. I am at 1920x1200 resolution.

Only one driver was ever released for this: v.A00 back in 2007. I have that driver installed, and have reinstalled it to no avail.

Also, I should add that this is a NEW problem. I have had this monitor for several years and it only popped up a couple of months ago (I think).

Any help is greatly appreciated.

If its replecated on different computers as you say... then its a problem with the monitor and not your computer or drivers.

Hey remogaggi,

I just found your thread here about your Dell E248WFP having the image shifted down.

I have the EXACT same issue, image shift at 1920x1200, factory reset fixes it until monitor is reset or goes into stand by.

Multiple computes tried, multiple cables tried... nothing works.

I was wondering if you've found a solution?

Thanks,
Lyle

Try changing the frequency in the adaptor properties.
