Long Post.
Heres the story. I bought a CRT screen (793MB) in the end of july and 1 or 2 months later the monitor started to screw up. Brown lines would come from the sides. Then I would hit it and they would leave and then come back. But they didnt appear whilst gaming. So me being lazy it didnt really bother me. But after a while I started to game less and just surf on the net and it would be really annoying. So I decied to return if, but I lost my bill. So I went to futureshop and to see if I could get a copy. And low and behold I did. They told me they could either do the following:
-Replace screen with brand new one
-Give me a 19" CRT screen that was returned and in crap condition (only if 1st choice coulnt happen)
-Or buy a LCD and pay the difference
So I bought a new LCD, them not having thebest of selection and I had to make the decesion at the time I took a SamSung 960BF. I get home plug it in, I install driver, install the OSD(theres only the power button on the screen and the OSD is used by the mouse with software), one of the programs wouldnt install because it would cause an error.
So I get past that and look around on the net and everything looks nice. So I decide to play a game (CS1.6). And it ghosts like crazy, so after tinkering with the OSD and nothing helping, Ive decided to return it in the next 1 or 2 days.
As for returning Im not sure hows its going to work. I will either get all of the money I paid for it. (Amount paid 437 plus my credit of CRT 151). Or get 437 back and still have credit on a LCD.
Now if I get all of it back I will either buy a SamSung 940B or a ViewSonic VX924, but if I dont I need to pick a better one from the following:

It would be greatly appreciated if I could be pointed in the right direction.
