Chapter 5 Troubleshooting
Possible cause and remedy
• Adjust "Brightness" in the Setting menu (see
(page
8)). (The LCD monitor backlight has a limited life span.
If the screen becomes dark or begins to flicker, contact your local
EIZO representative.)
• Check whether the PC is configured to meet the resolution and
vertical scan frequency requirements of the monitor (see
Compatible Resolutions" (page
• Try setting the magnification of display on the OS to "100%". When
using multiple monitors, try setting the magnification of display to
"100%" on all monitors.
• Afterimages are particular to LCD monitors. Avoid displaying the
same image for a long time.
• Use the screen saver or power saving function to avoid displaying
the same image for extended periods of time. Depending on the
image, an afterimage may appear even if it was displayed for a short
period of time. To remove such a phenomenon, change the image
or keep the power turned off for several hours.
• This is due to LCD panel characteristics and not a malfunction.
• Leave the monitor with a white or black screen. The symptom may
disappear.
• When inputting HDCP system signals, normal images may not be
displayed immediately.
• Turn the setting "On" for "Compatibility Mode" on the "Administrator
Settings" menu (see
"Compatibility Mode" (page
• Try changing "Input Color Format" in the Setting menu (see
Color Format" (page
11)).
• Try changing "Picture Expansion" in the Setting menu (see
Expansion" (page
10)).
• Check whether the setting for the resolution of the PC matches the
resolution of the monitor.
• When cloudiness cannot be removed even after wiping the screen,
dew may have formed on the interior side of the glass that protects
the LCD panel. The dew will disappear after a while. Dew appearing
like this on the interior side of the glass will not lead to product
failure or degradation.
