monitor 19" UltraSharp 1905FP help!
hey,
i just got my dell yesterday and i am having problems with the monitor
the monior pixel right now is 1280 by 1024 when i got it, it was on 1024 by 768 and the quality is terrible. in the monitor i have plugged in the suggested vga and the optional dvi right now. when i go to choose and change my background and click on a background the quality is poor on it.
can someone help me on what pixels to keep the 19 inch 1905fp on, and what cables to connect it with should i use the suggested vga or the dvi (i have only one monitor)
also i have a graphics car (the nivdia geforce 6800)

Display Properties...
Right click an empty space on the desktop / Click on Properties in the next box you see / Click on Appearance in the next box / Click on Effects next / Look at the next box and find the " Use the following to smooth, etc " which should read Standard, and change it to ClearType / Click OK.

http://news.designtechnica.com/print_featured_article6.html Monitor resolution information
17 / 18 / 19 inch LCD's have a native resolution of 1280x1024, and using anything else will give you less than a good viewing experience. Read up on LCD's from the link above. Also set the dpi to 96 dpi and have ClearType on in the Display Properties area. DVI ( Digital should be best though analog has come a long way in improving images, so test both of them to see which one you like. I like DVI )
