Chapter 5 Troubleshooting
Possible cause and remedy
This message appears when the signal is not input correctly
even when the monitor functions properly.
• Check whether the PC is configured to meet the resolution
and vertical scan frequency requirements of the monitor
(see
"2-1. Compatible Resolutions" (page
• Reboot the PC.
• Select an appropriate setting using the graphics board's
utility. Refer to the User's Manual of the graphics board
for details.
Possible cause and remedy
• Use "Brightness" or "Contrast" in the Setting menu to
adjust it. (The LCD monitor backlight has a limited life
span. When the screen becomes dark or begins to flicker,
contact your local EIZO representative.)
• If the screen is too bright, turn on Auto EcoView. The
monitor detects the environmental brightness to adjust the
screen brightness automatically.
• Check whether the PC is configured to meet the resolution
and vertical scan frequency requirements of the monitor
(see
"2-1. Compatible Resolutions" (page
• When an image is displayed with a resolution other than
recommended, the characters or lines of the displayed
image may blur. Use "Smoothing" and "Screen Size" in
the Setting menu to adjust the display (see
blurred characters / lines" (page
Changing" (page
24)).
• Afterimages are particular to LCD monitors. Avoid
displaying the same image for a long time.
• Use the screen saver or power save function to avoid
displaying the same image for extended periods of time.
• This is due to LCD panel characteristics and is not a
failure.
• Leave the monitor with a white or black screen. The
symptom may disappear.
• In the Setting menu, set "Overdrive" to "Off" (see
overdrive intensity" (page
• When entering the HDCP signals, the normal images may
not be displayed immediately.
