Red ghosting with new 2311x monitor?

I just connected my new LV2311 monitor today and notice that when I scroll text in a browser, or just move a window with black text in it or just move the mouse pointer, there is a red 'trail' behind the object until it stops moving.  I have another Dell monitor that this does not happen with.  So I am wondering if this is a defect and should I request a replacement for this issue?
Thanks!

I think I found a solution!  Check this web page:
http://www.pretentiousname.com/dell2407fix/
Bascially, he's saying that the preset color profiles (Warm, Cool, Daylight, etc) are too bright or send too much signal to the pixels, causing the ghosting effect with high-contrast images when they move.  I have set up a Custom color profile and reduced the amount of red, green and blue values and also color-matched with another monitor I'm using.  It looks much better now.

  • Ghosting with External CRT Monitor. Any Solution Yet?

    a number of months ago i saw a LONG thread that, as far as i read, never really solved this issue. I was wondering if a solution was ever found.
    thanks, seth

    more tests reveal a very perplexing conclusion:
    my PB works with:
    1. NEC (model #: ??? - looks very similar to LaCie electron blue), with built-in vga cable and apple adapter
    2. NEC Accusync 120, with removable vga cable (using both this NEC's supplied vga cable AND my LaCie's supplied vga cable) and apple adapter.
    LaCie Monitor works with 2 different PC laptops connecting via vga cable. No adapter needed.
    I have observed that the problem is
    1. not with my computer, since it works with 2 other monitors.
    2. not with the LaCie Monitor nor the LaCie-supplied vga cable since it works with 2 different PC laptops
    3. not with the vga cable/apple adapter combination because it works with PB attached to NEC Accusync 120
    Which leads to the conclusion that this Macintosh PowerBook 15" Aluminum DOES NOT WORK with this LaCie Electron Blue 19
    Can someone explain?

  • New Mac Mini won't connect with new Dell Monitor

    I connected the power cord and then the HDMI from Mini to Monitor, but it said it needed a DVI-D cable. or it would in 5 minutes go into power save mode, which it did, so there's no picture from Mini Where would that connect on the Mini? Where can I get one and what is on the other end?
    BTW, How can I tell if the Mini is on? I don't see any lights, but I did hear a sound the first time

    There is a little light next to the black dot on the front of the Mac Mini.
    light on = mac mini is on
    light blinking slow = mac mini is sleeping
    light off = mac mini is off
    Did you push the power button on the back right hand corner of the mac mini.....?

  • Network driver for Symantec Ghost with new X240

    Good morning,
    I just got in a couple of X240 laptops and I want to use Symantec Ghost to image them. I use the Ghost Console TFTP boot option. Which driver should I add to the image so that I can get the two to interact?
    -March

    You will need to add a Vista based 32 bit driver through the Ghost Boot Wizard and then rebuild the boot package.  GSS currently uses WinPE 2.0, which is the Vista version of WinPE.  If there are no Vista drivers available for the NIC, then using DOS as the PreOS may be the solution.

It just looks fishy too me. It would be highly appreciated if someone could just check this out just to tell me that i don't need to worry about it. Or point me in the right direction.

    I just bought a new external monitor (ASUS), and it have DVI and VGA plugs. I bought the DVI adapter to connect with my macbook pro laptop.

  • Red square with circle, grey exclamation point AND iTunes won't sinc new songs?

    I have just upgraded my iPhone 4 to iOS 7.0.3 and for some reason my music on my phone will not play. Every song comes up with a red square with a red circle around it and simply will not play. Looking on iTunes now - every time I try to play a song a grey exclamation point with a grey circle pops up next to the song and again WILL NOT PLAY!
    I've heard that it iTunes might be having trouble finding the source of the song (which its never had trouble doing before) so I deleted one song and tried to replace it back on there only to find that it is now not sincing new songs either! This new song is very light grey in colour and has the spotted circle next to it.
    I don't even know where to start fixing these problems.
    Additional Information:
    I have my phone set up to Sinc only checked songs and videos.
    I drag and drop my songs into the 'On this iPhone' heading rather than sicing the whole thing as I share this computer with my brother.
    Am I going to have to downgrade my iOS back to what it was?
    I really hope someone out there can help!

    [[UPDATE]] SOLVED - I've restarted both my computer and my phone and tried to re-drop in that one song that was coming up light grey. It's now sinced and playing on Itunes and is the ONLY song on my phone. No more exclamation mark or red square.
    Looks like I'm going to have to delete all the songs and replace them into my itunes.
    *sigh*
    Thank you Apple for this smooth, easy going update. Much appreciated.

  • New 80GB ipod - red cross with support website

    Hi
    I was connecting my new ipod (only 3 weeks old) to my macbook leopard when suddenly a red cross symbol came up on the screen with the address of the mac support website at the bottom. I went to the website and it suggested I put it in disk mode. The apple sign came up as described - but straight after I toggled the hold button not roughly six seconds after holding the select and menu button as it suggested. Next when I tried to switch 'immediately' to the select and play button, it returns to the red cross with the web address - not to the disk mode screen.
    I have tried holding them down for different lengths of time, swapping quicker and faster etc but no change. If I repeat holding the select and menu buttons then the apple symbol goes away momentarily and comes back.
    Im on holiday at the moment - so if theres nothing to do but send it off to be fixed then it means Im without my ipod for the long traveling hours - the reason I bought it when I did - only 3 weeks ago - I hadnt expected it to break so soon. I also have a macbook and before that had an ibook and they both had early problems. I am always conflicted with apple - they make the best most advanced and creative products but they are always flawed and undurable - quick to break and succumb to errors. I am starting to think that I may just slum it out with pc in future - it may be better in the long term.
    Ironically enough Im not even sure if I kept the HMV receipt at home = I really should have learned after past experiences with apple products. If anyone could save me the hassle and money of paying for repair (if I cant find the proof of purchase) by suggesting another way to fix it for the rest of my journey - I would really appreciate it!
    THANKS :)*

    Ok researched online and managed to get it in Diagnostics mode.
    Ran a test on HDD Specs and HD Smart Data - both resulted in "Error! Diag Halt" flashing across the bottom of the screen.

  • Assistance needed with new monitor and printing from LR3

    I just purchased a new IPS monitor.  I have calibrated it using the HP Display assistant that came with it.  It is an HP ZR 22w.  I saved my calibration as a preset  - however - this is not appearing as a profile when I try to select it in the print module.  the checkbox for "include display profiles" is ticked.  If I allow the printer to manage - the pictures are much warmer than on the IPS display.  My printer is a canon mg6120 and I am running windows 7.  I would appreciate any assistance that anyone can provide.  Thank you

    I think the "HP Display assistant" is a software tool, is that right? 
    Ideally with Lightroom, you should use a hardware calibration/profiling tool (Spyder, Eye One, Color Munki etc).  In particular, you need a monitor profile that contains colour space information.  I had a look through the HP Display Assistant user manual, and it appears the software does calibration but it probably doesn't put colour space info in the profile.  It'll be better than nothing, but a hardware tool is better. 
    However:
    I saved my calibration as a preset  - however - this is not appearing as a profile when I try to select it in the print module.  the checkbox for "include display profiles" is ticked.  If I allow the printer to manage - the pictures are much warmer than on the IPS display.  My printer is a canon mg6120 and I am running windows 7
    This is not what you want to do!  The profile that the HP Display Assistant creates is for the monitor, and only for the monitor.  It gets the right white point and tone curve for the monitor.  What you need in the profile drop-down in LR print module is a printer profile, not a monitor profile (except on very special circumstances). 
    I'm not familiar with the MG6120, but when I googled "profiles for canon mg6120" I got a lot of hits, so I assume profiles are available.  It's quite likely that some came with the printer driver, and were installed with the printer software.  When you select "profile" in LR print module (you may well have to go to "Other..." to see them all) then there should be profiles for the printer - possible lots of them - one or more for each paper type.  If they're not there, see the Canon documentation (or google it) to find out how to load them.   
    If you can't find any profiles for the printer, then try using sRGB (or probably it's "sRGB IEC...").  Without colour management, your printer will probably expect sRGB images, so this should be roughly right, but a specific profile for the printer is better.  This is one of those very special circumstances when something other than a printer profile (and sRGB isn't a printer profile) may be better than nothing.

  • New Dell Monitor with built in Webcam

    I just got the new Dell monitor (SP2008WFP) that has the built in web cam. Everything works great with iChat in that I can see and hear the other person perfectly. However, they report that they hear a lot of echo which does not seem to disappear no matter what I do with input level or the output level. Either the microphone is very sensitive or the drivers for this webcam are not really perfected yet.
    I have it set up on a Mac Pro with the output coming out of the digital output through speakers, and the input as the webcam microphone.
    Any ideas anyone?
    (For what its worth the monitor does seem to basically work for all those that were looking into getting one - I know I couldn't find anything on the web to confirm that it even worked)

    Ralph,
    Thanks for the response, you are quite a trooper on this forum!
    I had my quicktime speed set for Cable (1Mbps) since that is what I have. On your suggestion I upped it to 1.5Mbps and in the video preview window it looks like the audio response from the mic is a little more 'snappy'. I will need to connect with someone to determine if this has really occurred though and I'll get back to you. Hopefully I made it clear before, but I am experiencing this delay in response even when I am not connected to anyone (just using the preview window in iChat), its almost like there is a delay in the mic picking up sound. I'd be surprised if changing the quicktime bandwidth helped, but I have to confess it does look better, so I have to give you credit.
    Even though this monitor is a Dell, I really want it to work as I have been looking for an integrated solution for the Mac Pro for some time and Apple just doesn't appear to be coming out with it. The video is great, but the echo is very annoying. Hopefully if the delay is eliminated then the iChat software will do a better job of filtering out the echo. I'm not sure if I mentioned it in the first post but the echo only appears on the other end of the iChat, everything on my end is perfect, no echo at all. However, the only new component in the mix from previous iChats is my new Dell monitor.
    Thanks again for your help, I'll post back if this works.

  • Bought a new monitor.. wide screen 23"... Firefox is not filling the full window. IE works fine but I prefer Firefox. What do I need to do to fill entire window, not just the way it was with the old monitor?

    Bought a new monitor.. wide screen 23"... Firefox is not filling the full window. IE works fine but I prefer Firefox. What do I need to do to fill entire window, not just the way it was with the old monitor? edit

    Most pages are defined to be a certain size, regardless of how large or small your monitor is. You can use Firefox's zoom feature (View menu) to enlarge the text and images (or just the text, if you prefer) on a page.
    In addition to making individual site adjustments, there are some add-ons that will default every site to a higher zoom level. For example, check out:

  • Problem with a new external monitor

    I'm having some trouble with my new external monitor (Samsung BX 2231)
    Last week when I connected the screen, there where no problems at all. I was using it as an extension of my desktop (as a second screen).
    When I changed the wallpaper of the external monitor, I accidentally chose the wrong file (I'm not sure which one), From that moment, my dock is freezing.
    Every time I tried to connect the monitor (as an second monitor), the dock is crashing.
    I can use the monitor as an 'clone', then everything is working fine. When I change it back to be a second screen, the dock crashed again.
    To solve the problem, I tried many options:
    - Reset the PRAM
    - Reset the SME
    - Remove the file 'com.apple.windowsserver.plist
    - Start the mac in 'safe' mode
    - Remove all the images from the images folder (where I chose the 'wrong' file)
    What are the other options? can someone help me?
    Regards YkeBert
