    I am running Windows 7 on a Dell Inspiron 570 PC. Any advice? Steve

    Use the monitor on screen controls to correct it.
    Had that happen a few times over the years.

    Syncmaster 2443BW/2443BWX
    Is it a 2443BW or 2443BWX? Look at the back of the monitor to verify.

    This is for the 2443BW:
