Need Help with my 2405FPW

I just recieved the monitor yesterday and I've really enjoyed it except for one small problem. When I look at gray areas or on some darker colors I can see some flickering. It somewhat like when you have a low refresh rate and the image isn't very crisp. I've updated my drives for the video card and tried both DVI and VGA cables. Anybody else have any problems with theirs??

Thanks,
Robert

    Let me guess, you are using a NVidia video card, possibly the 6800 series? I don't have that problem and I am using an ATi X850 XT PE. However, I saw several posts on other forums regarding the same issue and they were all using NVidia cards.

    I have the same problem with the flickering but I really can only see it when there is text or light colors up.  I'm using a couple year old Radeon 9700pro via VGA.  I have not been able to get DVI to work yet for some reason....still trouble shooting that but the flickering does bother me.  Otherwise I have no dead pixels, no light leakage and very uniform lighting across the panel.  Color not as good as CRT but I didn't expect it to be.

    Hey man, it's not the monitor, cause I have the 1901 ultrasharp with a better refresh rate and it still shows.  It's the Nvidia Card.  I even got the 6800 GT.  I did some tests on it and the flickering showed up under the tests too.  I think it's a small glitch that hopefully will be taken care of.
