Hi everyone ,
Around a week ago i decided it was time to buy a new monitor and at this stage i could only go to my local computer shop, which i brought a 24INCH LED Viewsonic VA2448 1920x1080. I had a little fiddle around with it installed cd drivers and all plugs are connected. For some weird reason it keeps making my screen go blurry randomly after i auto adjust it (where it stays normal then goes blurry).... This isnt my graphics card problem so i just wanted to know if anyone knows how to fix or what i can do with it. I'm willing to take it back as i have the receipt but i would prefer just to fix it... thanks

Do you use VGA, if you are running 1920 x 1080 you really need to use DVI or HDMI or you will never get the quality.

But I run a retail business and if you called I would say come back and swap it over... DOA is 14days. Take it back before then

I take it you are running it at full hd (1920 x 1080)?

Try dropping your refresh rate... But there is no real reason why it would be doing that.
