Dell 2007FP Monitor with a Shadow

Question

What’s up guys?   I have a Dell 2007FP LCD Flat Panel Monitor is about 18 month old and it has had decent use. I have 5 year warranty on this unit. I have noticed depending on the color for example a solid gray background shows a shadow shaped like a cloud on the upper part of the screen. You can see it shows with other light colors such as light blue, white and so one.  Is this normal to happen? What can i do to get rid of this? Or this mean my monitor needs to be replaced?   Thanks Juan Message Edited by jcasti1282 on 03-20-2008 03:30 PM

Looks like an internal problem. Probably best to get it replaced.

We purchased 20 at the same time and 9 have issues. I finally completed all the documentation (serial numbers, etc.) and will be contacting Dell tomorrow.

Try it again. At the top of the page it takes you to, it does say the link is invalid. However, midway down it will display 'your recent uploads' and then under that '3 images on Mar. 13, 2008'. Click on that and it should take you to the image page.

If that does not work, tell me how you got you pic into your message because I'm not having success at that.
