Monitor resolution problem

[ashwin.isaac]

Hi all
Today i got a new samsung 2033SW monitor and pixelview tv tuner card play tv box 6.. But strangely it doesn seem to work. I guess d resolutions doesn match. D tuner has resolutions of 800*600 1024*768 1280*1024 1280*768 1440*900 1400*1050 and 1680*1050.. I tried all d modes but d screen jus comes on for a second and vanishes. can anyone pls find a solution to this..

I had a word with d samsung technician.. He said that since d signal from d tuner is dynamic d monitor nly supports a resolution of 1600*900. Whereas d tuner doesn have this resolution.. Now what to i do..? I need solutions or suggestions ppl.. Totally confused..

Do your monitor supports any above resolutions ? Consult the manual.

Say your tuner & monitor both supports 1280*1024.
. Set the tuner resolution mode to 1280*1024. Now the monitor should automatically pick the resolution of the tuner.

If it's not picking that up then the refresh rate the the tuner is passing to the monitor is much high or low. Check to see if you tune the refresh setting of the tv tuerr.

Did you checked the monitor with pc ?
& check the tv tuner with other monitor & see if it works ?

what about the frequency of the pixelview tv, you may need to change to correctly sync the monitor.

Thanks a lot guys for your suggestions.. D samsung engineer took a look at d monitor nd he says d lcd display is faulty..(d display part of d monitor) he said he'l replace d faulty part.. Am tryin to get a replacement for d monitor.. Its brand new man.. Nd they jus ripped it apart for inspection.. Nd d insides of d frame jus came out from a few places.. Damn hope i get a replacement..

You should get a replacement unit. Just go to the dealer & see what he says. Wish you all the best.

BTW, some companies just plays bullshit in here in the name of replacement of faulty unit. I had very bad experience with asus DVD RW. I The service center guys replaced it twice with same model but old unit for my new DVD RW. But at the last time I got another old model old unit & it's giving me probs now.

Yes guys!! I did get d replacement.. Nd after gettin d new piece i realised that d last time i had got a used piece or somethin.. This time it was neatly packed nd sort of laminated at d glossy parts nd there were more parts this time around like a driver cd nd a user manual which i didn get d last time.. But at last d monitor is workin superb nd looks great too.. Thanks guys for suggesting this one..

Yeah, You got a used piece last time. Every new monitors comes with Driver CD, Manual & necessary cables & a proper packaging.

BTW, congtats. Enjoy you movies ( & TV shows ) at their full glory
