    You can check if your Screen has a "ghosting" problem or not.


    Just set your background on Windows to the colour black, now open any folder and slowly pull it around. You will notice that the folder is leaving some green shadow which fades away.

    Am I the only one who has this problem, or are your displays having the same issues?

    cheers

    Mine has no problem. Seem like that problem only comes with ATI4670.

    i highly doubt it has anything to do with the gpu, and doubt it even more the 3670 would perform better in anything than the 4670.

    I have the 4670 and no problems. It could be a driver issue.

    Im sure its not problem with display. If you had ghosting problem, it would act the same with mouse

    Well, it's just a guess, since I read many threads about problems with screen and most of them have 4670 :p

    Any more thoughts?
    The Ghosting mostly appears during changes between black and white.
    I believe this might be an issue with all 1600x900 screens.
    What resulotion do you guys got?

    Should I contact dell about this?


    cheers
