PROBLEM MODEL:
Acer AL2216W

I'm going to be selling these monitors, are there any good/cheap 22'' monitors you guys can recommend? That are confirmed working 1680x1050 @ 57hz of course! Thanks!

Probable problem model

DELL E228WFP

Reason - Only supports 1680 x 1059 at 60 Hz.

The "Probable" is because I can't guarantee it's the issue, but I think I've addressed everything else.

Surely that is a typo and you mean 1680x1050 ... ?

Silly question, but does anyone have any comparison data, or opinions, on the 22" monitors that work? Since it looks like I'll have to buy replacements for my DELL E228WFPs, I'd be grateful for any advice.

Thanks,

CJ

Is checking whether or not your monitor will run at 57Hz as simple as -

A. Seeing if you can select 57Hxz in Screen-> right click-> Properties-> Settings-> Advanced-> Monitor tab-> etc and seeing if 57hz comes up, or

B. Seeing if 1680x1050 @ 57Hz comes up in the available modes in the Matrox Power desk, or

C. Both A & B

Just making a final check that I haven't missed something before buying 3 new screens.

Thanks,

CJ
