    LOL!

    as fortune would have it I got a reply from HannsG support just now suggesting mine sounds faulty - 3 days after I returned it....


    Oh dear! Looks like your faulty purchase is on it's way to my house, lol

    i'd also ordered one at the start of september, then asked them 2 days ago if they'd had new stock from the vendor yet, and said i was unhappy at not being kept informed.
    got emails the same day saying 1-2 week delay, then in stock and despatched.
    received today, last day of original delivery estimate, just setup, and quite happy.

    one constant-on pixel left-of-centre but i'm not bothered as only see on black screen. i don't think this comes under Hanns-g replacement terms as it's only one pixel, but of course Amazon's return policy is very good, ie. any reason at all.

    The dead pixel may be repairable. Make sure to follow instructions carefully & not to overdo it or apply too much pressure. Good luck :), G

    Mine arrived today. I guess I've been unluckier than most as I've a stuck pixel in the lower right hand side of the screen. Not too sure whether Amazon would exchange it, or whether I can be bothered to go through the hassle of arranging an exchange when it's just the one pixel - it's permanently green.It's barely noticeable at all when the windows is up and running, it's as clear as day during boot up though. Even with the stuck pixel I can't complain at £105 delivered.

    Fogg1969, you could try 'repairing' the dead pixel using one/more of these methods. Good luck :D, G

    Thanks for that. :)Much to my surprise, the "poke with a finger" method worked.
  • mine arrived yesturday, seems a very nice monitor. Its smaller height wise than my 17" tft but definatly a lot bigger widthways.

    Oh dear. I wish I had stuck with my Dell CRT monitor. OK, I've gained space but I lost on picure quality and I don't like the widescreen. Ah well, I will just have to live with it.

    Why not run them together?

    Having said that I sent the Hanns G back.
  • To be honest, you will lose picture quality on ANY tft monitor. I noticed it when I first got a TFT a couple years ago but you just get used to it after a while.

    I also was a bit dodgy about the widescreen when it turned up but after a few hours use i quite like it now. Great monitor for the price.
  • Hey all :)

    First post. @Sui-Generis and Someguy that sucks that you're having probs. :(

    I just ordered one today from Dab £124.98 (just couldn't resist it).. I bought a 19" crt 4 years ago for £109 and it's STILL that price. I wanted to upgrade my monitor to get the most out of my new X1900XT and going by 99.9% of all the reviews that I have read.. I not going to be disappointed.

    @ GoofyGAT... cheers for the photos dude it's nice to see it up and running :)

    Might get another if I really like it.

    (I hope I actually get it.. sometimes my creditcard doesn't validate online!)
