1905FP Noise When Screen Changes
I have had a new 1905FP for five days. Just today it started exhibiting a minor problem. Whenever the screen refreshes, it makes a slight buzzing or vibrating sound that seems to be coming from somewhere within the monitor's case. It is just loud enough to be audible and annoying. Examples of what I mean by "whenever the screen refreshes": clicking a website link, opening a program, switching to the desktop, even scrolling up and down in a window using the scroll wheel on the mouse---- anything that causes the screen to repaint a new image. The "buzz" lasts only as long as it takes to repaint the screen, less than a second.
I am using the DVI connection with an ATI All-in-Wonder 8500DV at the recommended 60 hz and 1280x1024.
I could live with this if I had to, but I am concerned that it is a sign of a problem that will get worse over time and end up with a non-functioning monitor.
Any ideas?

>>Have you loaded the provided 1905FP drivers from the installation disk? <<
Thanks for the reply. No, I didn't load them because I read somewhere (maybe on this forum), that the cause colors in photoshop to be off. Maybe I will load them and see if the "buzz" goes away.
Oddly, the buzz seems to come and go. One time I use the monitor and it buzzes, next time it doesn't. Then comes back again. It sounds like some type of electrical buzz.
