monitor ghosting 753s

May 09, 2007 1 Replies

Hello there!, i am doing a review of existing computer equipment and noticed we have two monitors Samsung 753s syncmasters that are exhibiting ghosting badly. I thought it might have been the unshielded speakers next to the guns, but no change when I removed them. I tried a deguass several times but no improvement. They seem to be perfectly good monitors apart from this problem, which when typing black on white (like in Word ) it looks bad and causes eye strain using it. I checked the group messages already and noted , the comment on unterminated cable, and lost pin 10 ground (which I see would cause probs) but both are proper cables that are 'built in' to the monitor, and direct to PCI video VGA adapters. Any ideas? thanks Jeremusic



This can be from capacitors in the video path of the colour video amplifiers. A more common cause in these monitors is that the picture tube is going weak.
