Shadowing Ghosting Monitor

[CrispyCrispy]

I am having great trouble with my AOC computer monitor at the moment. It was fine yesterday, but today when I turned it on it suddenly had this fuzzy, ghosting shadowing effect and I cant seem to stop it. It is so bad that the mouse has completly dissappeared and I cannot read anything. I have looked at their website but it says change the contrast/brightness settings which I have but nothing has changed. It also said make sure the monitor cable is plugged directly into the computer but it is. I have also used another cable and the monitor has still got the effect. Please could you help me,

Thanks,

Ian

Hello and welcome....

 

I am afraid to say the monitor in my opinion is on its way out.....

 

AOC monitors are known for ghosting I myself bought a brand new one and it had ghosting from the time I switched it on.I tried everything to fix this but nope the monitor was faulty and I took it back to PC World and had my money back....

 

If you have tried an update of your grapics card drive and tried a reset to factory via the monitor controls then my opinion is time for a new monitor.If your monitor is not that old and is still under warantee I would return to the shop were you bought it...

 

AOC I found is one of the worst monitors for faults.

The monitor isn't actually very old just less than half a year so I thought the problem could be easily fixed. Oh well thanks anyway, I probably wont buy an AOC monitor again!

I would never buy one again........I found Dell flat screens excellent value and excellent picture on DVI or VGA connections...

 

I would take it back to the store were you bought it as it should have a 12 months warantee on it......Consumer rights say they must replace it with exact same model or something alike.......You could argue for your money back but that could be a loosing battle......Or exchange for a diffrent make and model.....
