DANGERMAN Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 My tft does it and I just give it a tap on the back bottom right corner. However my laptop did it and it was fatal, cant remember what exactly was wrong with it, other than it being 'fucked' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retroed Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 How much have you got to spend? THIS is an awesome unit, with TV and HDMI input. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hendo Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 Wow, that's pretty good. You can use that as a TV and a PC monitor, I take it? I'm gonna be after a new TV soon I think and that might do me well! While I'm here can I hijack Hinn's thread to ask something else? I've been meaning to ask here for a while, I've only got one scart input on my TV, yet I have one for TV set-box, DVD player, PS2 and Wii all hustling for use. I need one of those scart splitters as I'm pretty sure the input bit will soon die on me, and I'm not sure exactly how soon I can get a new telly. So, anyone got a decent recommendation for a splitter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retroed Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 Yep, that Monitor can be used as a TV or for PC. It only has analogue built in, but will accept a Freeview box or whatever. I can recommend a decent RGB Scart splitter. I use one by Vivanco (I have two actually, one downstairs and on in the bedroom). It takes upto 3 Scart inputs, and all are RGB wired. It's THIS one. I paid £12.99 in the Play.com sale, is £17.99 now. You may be able to find it a bit cheaper elsewhere, though. You could buy two and use the 3rd input for another Scart splitter, making a total of 5 inputs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
