I had a red hot pixel almost exactly diagonal from yours. I tried to get used to it, but couldn't so I ordered a new 5680. As soon as it came I sent the first one back. This one came with 3 stuck pixels. Two of them went away with a...

Emyrs, As you already know, this is sometimes tough to troubleshoot because there are so many variables involved. Do you have other computers on your LAN? Can you transfer files between them and your SAGER? Are they able to access...

Cobra, I own a small engineering consulting firm and we do a lot of CAD (specialize in Pro-E) and FEA. I recently purchased a 5680 to try out because we need to update our laptops (Dells). I was pleasantly surprised with it. I have...

I'd say on the HP monitor (nice 21") it is bad enough that I use my laptop LCD instead. However, on my Dell monitor it is OK, but definietly noticable. Is there something that can be put in between the laptop and the monitor to...

Well, I'm glad I asked the group. I was almost ready to buy another monitor just for work. I wonder, does the same thing happen on a flat panel display? My previous laptop always looked fantastic when connected to a monitor. ...
