LCD becomes fuzzy after connects with T61p through VGA port

Hello,
I have a Dell E207WFP LCD which is previously connected to a Dell desktop through VGA. Today I connect it to my T61p through VGA using the same cable. I am able to setup the resolution as native resolution which is 1680*1050 @ 60Hz. However, I found that the screen is obviously fuzzy than connect to the desktop. The font is not sharp. I tried to adjust the cleartype font in Win7 and the bright and contrast in the LCD but nothing helps. I connect it back to the desktop and it works fine... Both computers run Win7. Could you please let me know what could be the possible reason? Thank you very much!
My T61p uses FX 570m video card.

This is hard to judge without a picture. It could just be a low-quality VGA port which is not a defect but an attribute or a nature of many laptop VGA ports.
Remember that the VGA is an analog-type video connector and some sort of blurriness is to be expected, especially at higher resolutions, this is because the GPU processes the image digitally as well as the LCD, but the VGA is analog so the image has to go through 2 conversions.
In conclusion: VGA is great for use in projectors and other devices with resolution no higher than 1280x1024. Above this resolution, defects are likely to appear.
For higher resolutions I'd suggest purchasing the Advanced Mini Dock which features the digital DVI port.

  • Why T430 connect with monitor through VGA can only have 60 fps refreash rate?

    I have a T430 and T420.
    When I connect the T420 with monitor through VGA, the refreash rate of the monitor can be 75 fps in 1600*900. But When I connect the T430 with the same monitor through VGA, the refresh rate can only be 60 fps, no 75 fps option in the list, Anybody has idea why it works like this?
    Thanks very much.

    Actually, on second thought, does the external monitor show up as "Generic PnP monitor" in Device Manager? Or does it show up as the correct model number?

  • Iphone 3 and 4 can't connect with wireless through air port

    We purchased a new Time Capsule yesterday to replace one that stopped working.  We have been able to get the Air Port/network working for our Mac Books and iPads, but cannot access the wireless network on our iPhones (a 3 and a 4).  The wireless connection function on the phones show the network and shows a check mark next to the network, but does not switch to the wireless network from 3G.  We tried to 'forget the network' and sign in again, making sure we are on the WPA2.  Any other suggestions?   Tami

    I had this happen to me yesterday.  I have a AirPort Extreme and my iPhone was unable to connect to the wireless network.
    I tried everything from resetting the network settings on my iPhone, Hardbooting the iPhone,  and even changing the wireless password on my Wireless network and restarting the AirPort Extreme.  Nothing worked.
    However here is my solution:
    Hardware restart.  I just unplugged the AE waited about 20 seconds and plugged it back in.  When it came back up ...My iPhone was able to connect to the network.

    You don't see it on the left-hand side of iTunes - you need to connect and select the iPad on the left-hand side, and then one of the tabs on the right-hand side that you use to select which content to sync to the iPad should be Photos : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236
    You will need to select and sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent sync remains on the iPad, not including photos in a subsequent sync is how you delete them from it.

    My ipod ejects itself, immediately after connecting with usb cable, before synchronizing could start. What’s wrong?

    Have you tried plugging the iPod in with a different USB sync cable to verify the issue is not with the cable?  It might not also hurt to connect it to another USB port as well.
    Otherwise, try manually placing the iPod into Disk Mode and then connecting it to your PC.

    reboot
    resinstall apple software
    if non of that helps then try another cable
    if that don't help could be your phones connector is damaged

  • E71x not vibrate after connected with PC Suite

    Anyone has the same problem? My E71x purchased 2 days ago does not vibrate while and after connected with PC Suite. I had to turn off and turn it back on to activate the vibrating thing.
    Thanks

    mmm... ill describe the whole situation:
    phone has 2 days old
    I connected it to the PC
    Running PC SUITE
    All was functioning normal, i had about half charge
    i got a phone call from my gf, when i picked up the call, i disconnected the phone
    the line dropped dead. so did the phone
    i tried to restart it to no avail
    i plugged it to the pc, didnt work
    i removed the batter, didnt work
    so i connected it to the power cord, and the lights turned on
    i disconnected then tried to boot it up, and didnt work
    i reconnected the power cord and started it while on external power, and it did start, showing just 1 little bar of battery.
    I left it there for about 1hr and removed it, and charge was FULL
    i reconnected to PC and im monitoring it and it hasn't discharged
    so its weird... <.<
    my guess is that unlike HTC or Sony Ericsson phones, the data cable and hte power cable CAN be connected at the SAME TIME. that would be the only explanaition on why it doenst charge up on the USB (but ohter theory of mine is that if i connect it to the PC on file trnasfer mode, it might charge it)

  • Titles made in Premiere become fuzzy after rendering

    Is there a setting or button to check in Premiere to prevent titles made in Premiere from loosing the clarity and shapeness they had to becoming fuzzy and out of focus after the video is rendered?

    I'm a novice learning Premiere. I assumed the softwear would make the export setting the same as the settings used to make the video sequence. I checked the best quality boxes and in both the rendering and exporting windows, but  the text in the titles made with Premiere played back fuzzy.  However, all the images I used stayed sharp in playback after rendering and exporting, even text that was already in images I imported in to Premiere stayed sharp in playback after rendering and exporting. What are the best sequence and export settings to use to produce sharp clear titles made in Premiere?

  • Can't connect with modem through e2500 router

    I have an old Speedstream 5100 modem hooked to my e2500 router. Everything works well except if for some reason my modem disconnects from ISP I can not log into it through the route to reconnect it. I must plug a direct cable into modem from computer run connect script then plug modem back into router all is fine again.
    Any ideas why connecting to modem through router is blocked?

    My Speedstream only has one Ethernet connection so I didn't realize that it looked like a router to the local network. I changed the mode to bridge on the Speedstream and setup PPoE on e2500 and reconnected to ISP on e2500 setup screen. That may solve the problem of reconnecting since now it is managed on the e2500.
    One thing I now see is since I left the modem IP set to 192.168.0.X I can't get to it at all through the e2500. Is that because my DHCP in e2500 is setup with 192.168.1.X IP range so modem isn't addressed in my network? If I hook directly to Speedstream and change IP to 192.168.1.X will it become visible on local network?
    You cannot access the modem anymore while you have an active PPPoE connection. For PPPoE the E2500 won't need an IP address from the modem thus it doesn't do DHCP on the WAN port and thus it never sees it. When you try to access 192.168.0.* addresses the E2500 will route it through the PPP tunnel to the ISP.
    If you hook your computer directly to the SpeedStream it should automatically pick up a DHCP address (assuming the computer is still running on DHCP and not with a static IP and the SpeedStream does not automatically disable the DHCP server in bridge mode). If you have set up a static IP on the computer you have to change the IP address to a 192.168.0.* address.

  • DVI to s-video adapter altering laptop display after connection with TV

    Greetings,
    I recently got my MacBook Pro to display on my TV via the dvi to s-video adapter (also connected stereo sound). Everything works great, but ... after I disconnect the windows on several of my programs are altered (stretched, shortened, often relocated offscreen or very near off-screen). My ical window refused to display at all. I trashed the ical preference file in the Library, restarted the program and I could see the window again. I'm going to be connecting with my TV a lot. It will be a pain to have to trash preferences files after every connect. Anyone know what's going on?
    Thanks,

    What happens if you quit all those applications prior to making the connection to the TV? I would think that should prevent the windows from dynamically resizing. But they are still going to have to resize if you open those apps while connected to the TV.
    Mac OS is trying to keep the open windows completely on the desktop. Since your TV's screen is likely much smaller (in pixels) than the 1680 x 1050 pixels of the MBP, the windows are being shrunk and in some cases repositioned so they fit on the desktop when connected to the TV. Unfortunately, the previous settings are forgotten and not restored when you disconnect.
