Dell 2007FP Sharpness Control
In the Display settings menu on my new 2007FP I can't change the Sharpness of the monitor. The menu will not let me access the feature. It is set at 50%. I like my screen crisp as opposed to soft. What am I doing wrong? Thanks, Computerguy2

I just tried VGA mode and still greyed out.- Interesting. The Dell Moderator a week or so ago said she/he might look into this for us. If both are grayed out, than some thing is not right. Have to wait for Monday to post a question to the Moderator again to see what was found. I'll try to keep you posted....

Thanks. I will check back.- Left a post on the subject computerguy2, but the Moderator will not be back until some time Monday, and who knows when we will get word back. If it does not work using either analog nor dvi than some thing is wrong and me thinks tech support should be given a call. Don't know if some thing else can be done to correct this, we might be over looking some thing or its busted :smileyvery-happy:
- I was the OP about this issue on a 2407 in another thread. I discovered the following: "Certain settings (e.g., Wide Mode, Sharpness, Zoom) are grayed out when the display is running in its native resolution. After switching to 1280 x 1024, all of the settings that were grayed out in 1920 x 1200, including sharpness, were available." I'm just not sure why sharpness is not user-configurable when the display is running in its native resolution.

I agree, what good is the sharpness control if you cant adjust it in native resolution. I was also wondering if anyone is having the problem of purple/blue bleed around text. Tried everything to get rid of it and can't. My 19 inch Samsung never had this problem, but now both Dell and Samsung are doing it when connected to my new Dell XPS 410. I know that the Samsung drivers are for XP (no Vista yet ) but the Dell has been upgraded to correct drivers. Could it be the Video card? nVidia 7300 LE.- NOTE: The foregoing applies to both the sharpness setting and the "bleed" around text. I'm seeing the same purplish/red-type bleed, particularly around black text on a white background. I have been able to minimize it by using the ClearType Tuning tweak. However, I haven't been able to *eliminate it* entirely (i.e. I can still see it if I look close enough).
