Frequently asked questions

• Why does white not look white in my picture?

• Monitor power-light indicator flashes from green to orange constantly and there is nothing on the display. What is the reason of this?

Check to see that the computer is not on power-saving mode by pressing any key or moving the mouse. Then if there is still no display, this typically indicates that the monitor is not receiving a video signal from the video card in your computer. You should verify this by trying the monitor on a different working system, when you plug the monitor into the computer you should get a display…if the monitor still doesn’t show an image on the different system, this indicates an internal problem with the monitor.

• Is there anyway I can adjust the blurriness on my screen?

Also make sure that all the pins of the monitor's video cable are in good condition.

• Why does the display on my monitor appear to flicker, bounce or wave?
