67309 2002-08-18 05:56:00 Hi. I just picked up my 107T yesterday, and am now enjoying lovely crisp flicker-free images at 85hz. But you're right - my defaults were quite out as well. If you haven't sorted it by now, what I found easiest was to set equal vertical and horizontal distances while retaining a smaller sized view area. Then I adjusted the sides via pincushion et al. Finally I got the max view area by using the zoom control, instead of the horizontal and vertical spacing.

If you find the adjusters too difficult to correct, there are some third party software utilities that can do the job - used to be one on Fileworld a few years ago.

Tomorrow I pick up my fantabulous TDK Tremor S150 speakers! Only $277.00 inclusive! *smiles for miles* Audio heaven is about to walk in my door!

67310 2002-08-18 06:10:00 Good one Greg.

I haven't "got around" to fiddling yet, I'm so slack. I don't suppose you'd like to post your numbers for me to try them, would you?

Ta! :-)

67311 2002-08-19 08:27:00 With pleasure. However bear in mind that all these units are unique, and that the defaults may have been set differently (via the vendors). Also the fact that I view mine thru a Glare Guard, as well as that I changed my settings from default without reference to resizing the display area, then zoomed it, which auto-set some of these figures - but they may be worth a try:

Horizontal position: 20
Size: 67
Vertical Position: 47
Size: 58
Side curve Pin: 52
Bal: 52
Side angle Trap: 32
Parra: 47
Rotate:61

Hope it helps!

67312 2002-08-19 10:05:00 Thanks Greg. I tried your settings and you are so right - the units are all unique LOL.

With your horizontal setting my desktop was way off to the left as the biggest difference, and the other settings were a bit wonky for me as well.

It's really really hard to get it "just right" for as soon as you adjust one setting you have to go and adjust another. Oh well, it's not that critical, but being a bit of a perfectionist it's hard to settle for less than 99%. :D

Thanks anyway, it was appreciated.

67314 2002-08-19 12:26:00 Volume is on max in the speaker icon in the task tray

You have double-clicked the speaker icon to check that all the appropriate volume levels are at max?
