[dba-Tech] Monitor - blurry

Thanks for the tip - the HP site does nominate 1280 * 1024 for this model and I had it on 1152 * 864- but changing it over has actually made it a little blurrier. It is at its worst when I am looking at black text on white background - I might try to find another driver or just take this beast back.

  Whats the recommended resolution for the monitor?  

  A number of the laptops are designed with a minimum resolution and once you
  go larger than that it becomes 'blurry'.

  As a test, try changing your resolution to 1280 * 1024 and see if it becomes
  clearer.  

  Eg. My flat-panel here at work doesn't work too well at a larger resolution.

  Cheers,
  Andrew

  After the demise of my monitor recently, I purchased a new HP Pavilion
  f1723, 17" flat LCD monitor.

  What I find is that at times, certain fonts are quite blurry (especially
  Times Roman and serif fonts - I hadn't noticed it in the shop and as most
  email and email newsletters use TR font, I'm finding it maddening.)

  Before I contact the seller, I wanted to ask the list whether anyone else
  has experienced this....

  TIA
