After Tesco did not have any more instock on the Dell 19 inch flat screen se198WFP I bought a one from Curry,s.Typical Tesco never instock on sale products.
What a mistake.
Curry,s is intergrated with PC World.
So I bought the AOC MW19E.What a mistake?After fiddling around with settings for a little while.Why because there was a yellow/greenish tint to the screen and text was blurred.I tried a diffrent VGA lead a brand new one.I surfed the internet on this problem.
Turns out this line of monitor has a problem with what they call GHOSTING.
Were it appears as if someone has taken a clear tinted plastic sheet and placed it over the monitor creating the blured tinted effect.Now has to spend more money on cash for a taxi to Curry,s.to take monitor back.Explains to girl in store about ghosting and it seemed a fault with this brand she said ooooh I will just go and get you another one?
WHAT!I was like did you not hear what I just said to you?
What do I want another dodgey one for?So I think I gone blind all together?
So got my cash back went to Tesco and hey they had the Dells back in so I bought one.
One happy Jelly Bean.
Avoid AOC monitors and avoid Curry,s and PC World.
Jelly Bean, don't you know that a ghost knows better than to mess with a wizard.
Perhaps you were trying to use rabbit ears on that monitor.
That could explain the ghosting....
