New Monitor after two weeks suddenly without any disturbance of any kind suffers from Grille element overlap which causes thin vertical lines across the monitor.
The book says turn up the contrast and brightness to max and open a white background at the effected area the lines will go.
So I open up notepad and place it over the effected area. No effect after ten minutes. I get a little annoyed and give the monitor a little tap and I mean a little and they go away.
Next day switch the monitor on and they're back but in a slightly different place so I do the same cure.
I ring up the tech support and they say in hushed tones give it a tap. So I confess I've done that. The phones quiet while she talks to a techie and comes up with the book solution but leave it much longer.
So this time I leave it half n hour still the same give it another tap and they're gone. Turn it on today and there back in the orginal place but more of the screen effected.
Looks like another exchange to do. I don't want to do it as the thing weighs bloody 30kg and I have to carry it up and down stairs. But I've paid over half a grand for it and I'm now wishing I bought a LCD monitor instead.
