OK, just one more? The monitor I got is a Princeton 19" with 800:1 and 25 mc specs. It seems to be fine in NR03 and pretty good in SCC. But I do notice some blurring in SCC as I go by poles and stuff. The question is, if I get a monitor with better response time (ms Number) will I solve this? Or is this a trade-off I have to make for the LCD monitor? I still have time to return this one and try another... Any advice appreciated very much... Thanks in advance.
If you do not want noticable ghosting or blurring you really need a monitor with a ms of 16 or less. Brian Bowles "tlgtr" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

> Any advice appreciated very much... Thanks in advance. Wait about another 2 years - there's some new flatpanel display technology on the horizon that has the sharpness of an LCD with the response and contrast of a CRT....I've already started saving for a 50" one ;-)
look at the new Sony X-Brite Series, they look awesome and have a 12ms response on the 19". "Brian Bowles" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:0AQUd.40814$[email hidden]...

Looked at the Sony's...if I could afford one of them...I could race real cars (lol)... Looks like I may go back to a CRT, but a 19" flat screen...(got my tax refund-gotta buy SOMETHING)...gonna pick one up tonite and give it a try...more in my price range anyway...
8ms displays on the way. pez "mjones53" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:YhRUd.25264$[email hidden]...

Can I barge in and ask a question? A friend of my wife's got a Princeton 19in flat panel display. Thats all I know about it. I set it for 10x7x32. She said she did not have any drivers for it and windowsXP just declared it a plug and play monitor. What is the preferred screen resoultion and does it really not need an installation cd? dave henrie
No drivers needed for a monitor, but I don't know what you mean by that 10x7x32? On a 19" monitor, your resolution is probably at least 1028x1024, and possibly as high as 1600x1200. But that info should be in clear sight on the box, the manual, or a quick google search on that particular monitor. Usually if you set the resolution too high, it will span across the screen as you move the mouse. If the entire screen doesn't show, you are too high in resolution.

Most 19" LCD's are 1280X1024. -Larry
