Hi,

at last my first post after some activation issues.

First say hello to everybody

Ok, my problem is:

I hope you can help me with this.

After posting a lot in several forum and (de)install several drivers, my problem still not solved.

I visited my PC Shop for instruction but they couldn’t help me. I should call BenQ, so I did. Was a waste of money.

Problem: Like the title say,
1280x800 (1.6) Works fine
1360x850 (1.6) Works fine
1440x900 (1.6) Works fine
1680x1050 (1.6) PROBLEEM is: no auto adjust anymore. Seems like Windows not recognize this resolution, the virtual screen is too big for the desktop. Need go with my mouse outside the monitor to see the rest of the screen. Using the mouse let the screen move.

Using a none 1.6 resolution I get vertical stripes, Saw it after change my desktop background into none with balck background.

I also had that problem before after connect my Widescreen TV. Wasn’t in the mood for problem solving that moment, was just an experiment.
This is a problem and try to solve it from Friday by now. No one has an answer.

Another strange issue is: I make always Ghost images from systems. After reboot with another Ghost image (working Windows) this problem still here.
Can it be that the Monitor has a malfunction or is a driver problem?


I hope you can help me with this.

Greetings,

Martin

After all kinds of changes, i changed the VGA Cable.
Data transfer inadequate, cable is 5 meter. I took the original 1.8m cable and screen looked ok.
So i need to buy a better VGA Cable
