Hi,
I've been using a Dell 2005FPW for years (Revision 1) and absolutely love the quality, brightness, color reproduction, etc. - I recently purchased a new (used) Dell 2005FPW (Revision 3) that is in excellent quality and the Revision 1 is clearly brighter.
I've tried factory resetting both monitors, swapping cables, using only one monitor at a time, used DVI and/or D-SUB, etc. - but no matter what the Rev 1 is still a better picture.
I'm just wondering if there's any way to fix this? I purposely went after a 2005FPW thinking the picture would be identical, but I suppose there are differences between revisions. I thought it may be my video card, but when I power each one up independently I can still see a difference.
Any ideas? I see no way w/ my current driver software to manually adjust the brightness for this "new" monitor. Is this a common problem?
Thanks!
