I just got a Compaq P910 (from CDW, through Hot Deals) and hooked it up today. I turned the monitor on and everything seemed fine, but when I got into Windows I noticed that the text isn't as crisp as my old KDS VS-195 19" monitor (P910 uses diamontron tube, KDS uses a POS tube) . The text on the P910 looks blurry on the right and a little on the left (maybe just the corners?). It's not a huge difference, but I notice it.
Out of curiosity I hooked the VS-195 up right next to the P910 and I can tell that the VS-195 looks just a little better than the P910.
Now the question, do you think I have a bad monitor? I don't want to call Compaq tech support and be on hold for 8 hours, so I thought I'd ask you guys first. Just by typing this my eyes are hurting, though the refresh rate is set at 85hz....? Never hurt by looking at my VS-195.
BTW, I did play around with the settings a bit. I turned the Contrast and Brightness down a bit, and while that did help on the overall look, the corners (esp the right) are still blurry. Oh, and I have an ATI 8500 if you need to know the video card.
Thanks
