How do you remove blue thin line on LCD Flat Screen?

It is probably where the tv was physically impacted by an object and the liquid crystal has dispersed away from the area. I had one that eventually (about 9 months after) fixed itself and is back to normal.

What is the best gaming monitor?

Depends what size you are interested in and also what you will be using the panel for. I've done a lot of research in the 24" market. Came to the conclusion that the BENQ 2400HD is an all round top performer, a step above the rest. It come with all the best connections (HDMI, etc). Blacks are really deep and dark compared to most of the rival's shade of grey. Price is really good too. I will be using it for HD PS3 playback, Blu-Ray and surfing the net. All of which look excellent on this panel. Hope this is helpful for you. Regards Snoop

Is glass cleaner safe to use on computer screens?

It is safe on CRT monitors. It has the potential to damage LCD screens, so it should not be used on them.

Can you replace LCD laptop screen with LED screen?

That would likely not be a good idea. Presumably you would be using "contact paper." The problem with that is that it would reduce your visibility. In addition, you might not get all the air bubbles out. If you have to remove this plastic layer, you would likely leave adhesive behind. What might be a better idea would be to use a large enough, clear acetate sheet and fasten it to the case of the monitor and not the screen.

A makeshift solution may be to put a bag over the monitor when not in use. You would still have to clean it, but it would be protected when not in use.

What is the advantage of a 120hz lcd tv over a 60 hz lcd tv?

Television signals are broadcast at 60Hz, that is 60 fields every second. To make movement appear smoother and to reduce flicker on televisions, some models refresh the screen at twice or four times the rate of the incoming signal. Theoretically, the faster the refresh, the smoother the image will appear so 240Hz might be considered better than 120Hz.

But, it's not quite that simple. Some people prefer this processing while others will say that it does not benefit the quality.

Increasing the frame rate is not a simple task. Each additional frame needs to be created by examining the frames before and after with all movement predicted and calculated. It takes a lot of processing power to do it properly and the image processing still gets it wrong sometimes. The result can be smearing of the image or even adding some high speed jerkiness. These processes can never create information that was not captured originally so the end result always adds errors. Whether the end result appears better, worse or just the same is always a matter of opinion. Get into stores and see for yourself. If you like the effect of 120Hz or 240Hz refresh, it's a good thing to have. If you don't, then it's not worthwhile. If you are buying, remember it's your television so like what you like and not what you are told to like.

Why does your computer sound beep codes to indicate an error rather than simply displaying a message on your monitor?

Beep codes are designed to inform you of an error without having to rely on an external output device. Many of the beep codes relate to video, while others may indicate errors that may result in video output being unavailable in the first place. It was more efficient to handle all post errors of this nature by using beep codes.

How do you get a second monitor to work?

First of all - you need a graphics card that will support two monitors. Many/most don't. But if yours does, just plug the second one in. If it's an HDMI connector, there's a decent chance your system will detect it and adjust your graphics settings automatically. If it's a VGA connection, you'll have to adjust your graphics settings manually.

For windows 7, right click on your desktop, and select "Screen Resolution"

After that you're going to have to scroll through the menu items to find the way to add the second display.

How do clean a computer screen without damaging it?
