Monitor problem, horizontal pincushion

4657 Views 5 Replies 2 Participants Last post by  philip kirkham
Hey Guys,

I picked up a new computer, I'm having problems adjusting the 17" flat screen (CRT) monitor. I'm getting horizontal pincushion on the whole screen, it's not bad but it's enough to piss you off . I've tried everything to fix this, but there's no direct setting on the screen for adjustment. Is this a common thing that happens with flat screen CRT's??

Any help would be great, otherwise this monitior is going back.
Thanks,
Anthony

To assist the experts at this site you will probably have to supply a bit more info i.e. Make and model of the monitor, also what your system is cpu, graphics card, memory etc, if you have another monitor see if it will work with the pc, and then check with the experts on how to change the system to a standard VGA setup to see if that will work, or at least if you get another monitor to work, see if the new monitor is supported and if not try on-line for a driver.

And your OS is?

On the other monitor did you see if the OS for the PC supported the new monitor?

have you tried safe mode when booting up (F5 / F8) do you see any text at all when starting the pc etc.
