I run 2 monitors from 1 card. A 22" Sceptre and a 20" Proview. Today the Proview was looking really blurry. It looks really bad. If I lower the res from 1280 x 1024 to 1024 x 768 it clears up. It is designed to run up to 1400 x 900, and I have ran it at that smoothly. Nothing changed in my setup so I checked all of my connections. I got the new version of my driver, but it still does it.
Any suggestions?
if you run it at 1440x900 its ok?
sometimes LCD's can be temperamental when not run at the intended resolution, if you have ran it ok at 1280x1024 I don't know why it should suddenly go blurry.
No, sorry for the confusion. If I go above 1024 x 768 it's blurry. I used to run it wide open (1400 x 900) just fine. It's a piece of crap I'm thinking, made my a crappy company.
It's not a piece of crap, you will experience the exact same issue with any LCD on the planet.Quote:

A CRT (Old tube monitor) doesn't have a fixed number of dots it can display... so they can show non-native resolutions quite well. An LCD on the other hand has a fixed number of dots that show up, your monitors native resolution is 1400x900 and it looks good there, because for every dot you get a dot. If you try to scale that down to 1280x1024 not only are you displaying an odd number of dots, but you are trying to fit MORE in vertically than the monitor supports. 1024x768 works because it doesn't have to drop rows/calculate what to actually display.
If you try 1280x720 I bet it looks tolerably OK, but quite frankly any LCD is going to look like crap running a non native resolution.
