It wasn't until i went to a DVI cable that i saw this problem. the new video
card only has dvi jacks so when i used this monitor on my old pc using a vga
cable it worked fine. i tried different cables also with no luck. the reason
i'm trying to nail down the source of the problem is because trying differnt
things gets expensive. i do appreciate your help. i had the same thoughts
about this monitor also. i want to be able to go back to them with something
definitive.
thanks again
