Questions about 2407FPW

[Ichigo]

1. How do I check for the revision A03?
2. What's the deal with it not scaling properly at 1600x1200?
3. If I connect a 360 to it, will it stretch the 16:9 signal to a 16:10 or can I get the aspect-ratio scaling for that?
4. How should I check for banding, black levels, etc.?
5. What's the best way to calibrate th monitor?

Thanks. =p

If you have a nvidia card questions 2 and 3 should be fine, utilizing dvi digital centered output settings in control panel

question 1 no idea

question 4 and 5 -> find gradients online, for best calibration buy a spider calibrator

Wait, how is having an Nvidia GPU relevant with concerns to aspect ratio scaling for an Xbox360?

i think on the bar code somehwere on the monitor it says the revision right next to the model number.

I'd like some help with 3-5, please. xtknight has that website right? But I don't exactly know how do use the black level checker. I guess the gradient test is just whether or not I can perceive any steps in tone. The calibration I have absolutely no idea. Can anyone point me to a calibration guide or something?
