I had my LED(Toshiba) and motherboard (nvidia 8400) replaced on my xpsm1330. Now, when I watch videos if I'm not sitting directly in front of the screen the picture looks washed out.
If I move to the left of the right I can't make out the image. The replacement screen is a toshiba also.....
I just did a clean install, and everything is working fine, except for it seems video files are looking a bit washed out. I have noticed that Catalyst Control Center is not installed, could it be related to that? And is it possible to install CCC after a clean install?

I Have A Dell Xps M1730 With Geforce 8700 Gt Video Card, My Lcd Screen Is 1920 X1200.
When I Display Photographs In Any Of My Software Packages I See Colour Aliasing (blocking).
I Have Tried:
1) Latest Drivers From Dell - Same Result
2) Latest Beta Driver From Nvidia - Same Result
3) Connecting An External Dell Monitor Of The Same Resolution - Perfect.
4) Contact Dell Support - No Help
I just picked up the Sony Vaio F series from Best Buy and noticed that the video colors are distorted (bluish) when playing blu-ray or regular videos on the laptop. I tried tinkering with the display and nvidia settings. No luck. Pictures / images look fine. Only videos have the odd bluish color.

I could use a color profile too. Laptop is used for internet, photoshop, 3d modelling and watching somemovies.
I went with the integrated video card. I dont play games, but Will i still be able to watch movies or anything like that? Will the video card effect my SSd speed or CPU speed?

You knw the creative noise canx headphones that come with the 1530.
Well my girlfriend washed them in the wash, and guess what they are clean, and they still work.
Recently I've been having trouble with my M1330's GPU overheating. It's been idling at 70-85C and can sometimes get past 100C when under load.
Since I'm going to be in Japan for the next few months, it doesn't seem like there's a simple way for me to send my laptop in to get a new GPU or motherboard, if that's the issue.
So I've been trying various things to try to reduce the temperature. I bought an aluminum laptop cooler with 3 fairly large fans on it, but it hasn't had any significant effect.
I also downloaded the latest BIOS, since I heard that the newer ones increase the fan speed.
how can I calibrate my battery? I read somewhere that its good to calibrate it every like 30 cycles.
View 7 Replies View RelatedWas having an issue on bios A12 (I think it was) with the brightness (function keys were not adjusting it properly), so updated the bios to A15 and the latest intel drivers as advised. (have intel, not nvidia).
Now the screen on boot is either blank or with only blue lines.
Can hear it booting into windows so the system on the whole seems fine.
Have got it working successfully on an external monitor via the vga port. I have tried to reapply the A15 bios and reinstall the intel drivers but not changed anything. The display properties in windows shows the laptop monitor as stuck on 640x480 and low colours. screen is off on 640x480 and if upped to the only other option 800x600 gives blue lines.
My XPS M1330 is about a year old, I run windows XP, and I use the copper mod since it used to overheat when playing games. It's been perfectly fine for the last few months though.
Recently, sometimes when I try to play a video file or open specific programs (so far, photoshop and certain games) the screen turns bizarre colors and then quickly crashes .....
Will the M1330 HDMI output 1080p video and 5.1 audio at the same time? I can't seem to find the answer to this. I'm planning on getting a Plasma TV with a DVD 5.1 Audio system.
View 10 Replies View RelatedMy pen accuracy varies across the screen. Some place is perfectly adjusted and some other bring the pointer 1/2 cm off (or more)
I was running the OEM Vista OS and tried calibrating, tapped the cross exactly in the middle and saved. But still random accuracy.
I installed Windows 7 and use the 8 point calibration tool (control panel) and noticed that the top right corner could not be hit unless I bring the pen a bit on the inside, same to the bottom left. FYI in Windows 7 the cross calibrating point are almost touching the corners while in Vista, it is more spaced out.
if your TX2x00 has the same behavior in corners. Is your pen 100% accurate after calibration ?
how to make my screen get better colours as it seems pale. i tried the program and it works quite well. i changed the setting in the non expert thing from 1.8 standard to 2.2 television and its got a lot better colours. if you use the expert setting,im sure you can get even better colours but i find it hard. try this and im sure it will help you, post any expert calibrations if you can with screen shots. il try to make one now. to get to it, apple logo > system pref > display > color > calibrate....
View 4 Replies View RelatedI recently purchased the 15" macbook pro from apple online store. I immediately noticed that the screen was a lot less vivid/washed out than what I have seen from demo units at the store.
I did not find many similar complaints about the washed out screen so I was wondering if this is an isolated incident.
I have returned the unit and was thinking whether I should give it another shot (buying it in the store).
I purchased a refurbished macbook the screen looks really washed out, I have gone through the calibrations for the screen but unless I have the screen set just right it is really light.

I just bought the HP ENVY 17-j180ca Notebook PC. I'm trying to calibrate my monitor for photograph editing. The software I'm using to calibrate the monitor with asked two questions I don't have the answers to...

2. Is the monitor backlit with Fluorescent CCFL, white LED or RGB LED?
I own a M6700 and have had a few problems with it so Dell upgraded me to an M6800. Problem is that my M6700 had an IPS screen and this feature is no longer available with the M6800 so I reluctantly opted for the matt 1920x1080. I currently have both machines while I transfer data etc so I did some comparison photos comparing the screen quality.M6800 on the LEFT (matt standard) and the M6700 on the RIGHT (IPS)I am really disappointed with the quality of the M6800 screen (matt 1920 x 1080). I can't believe this standard is acceptable.
I mean this is a high spec laptop and Dell offer a screen this bad? The viewing angle is almost unusable. Left to right angle - not so bad, but up and down is so bad that I have to constantly move my head up and down to get an understanding of the colours on my screen. Everything thing is washed out and lacks vibrancy with a blue tinge through it.

Found and attempted to apply Win64_153318.exe on Intel Graphics website for my Intel 4000 Graphics hardware. This failed to install, with error message that it is not for my system (It was clearly marked Intel 64 bit, Intel(R) HD Graphics 4000.
Also found on HP Envy drivers, SP63750.exe, Version 10.18.10.3304, dated November 8, 2013. Made no noticeable change.
In some cases, I could get the color acceptable for one mode (Viewing JPG file), but unacceptable for screen display. I tried the high contrast mode, but made the screen really hard to follow with all those text boxes, like looking at a brick wall.
If I look at the same files with my (Win 7 Updated) Netbook mini 1101, all the graphics are really normal color and contrast. (Maybe the drivers got messed up when I had sent it on for repair to the HDD/MoBo). I haven't tried a total reset yet, it's always such a pain to do a master reset to see it is a hardware failing or not.
How to get my colors and contrast back to normal????
this is my first time posting, and i have a question.
i've heard that later on there will be different color lids for the sxps 13 and 16.
i understand that this is both a studio and an xps, so it makes me wonder if i can have cool designs on the top. i don't know how thats gonna fly with the leather, because black is the only color that i can think of that would go with it.
so heres my question: do you think that dell will release custom, or at least different colors for the sxps? possibly midnight blue, the RED one, white, brown, green. anything. and if you do, when do you think they will release the new options?
Regatta blue? (My Favorite) Regal Red? I know a few people on here have blue but i was just wondering how widespread the color choices are among NBR members?

I'm planning to buy inspiron 1545 next week.
I need to know if I can change the color an Inspiron 6400 (gray to black), using the plastic pieces of a vostro 1000 (black). I think they are the same.
If is possible, i need to know if I just need these parts:
- Dell Vostro 1000 Palmrest and Touchpad DX354 (BLACK)
- Dell Vostro 1000 15.4" LCD Front Bezel Trim PM606 (BLACK)
- Dell Vostro 1000 15.4" LCD Back Cover KT786 (BLACK)
- Dell Vostro 1000 Power Button Hinge Cover HX873 (BLACK)
So far, the leather-trimmed Studio XPS notebook only comes in black. But that could change very soon.
Dell's designers are considering a red (or according to them, "Bordeaux") plastic/leather lid combo, pictured here. It is not, however, part of the (Product) Red line.
