| Post subject: | WoW on new 22" Acer - Question? |
I just picked up a new Acer AL2216W (http://global.acer.com/products/monitor/1_series.htm) and have set it up to play World of Warcraft at 1680x1050. Setup was effortless adn it displays just fine on the screen. The only issue I have is when I walk sideways in the game. it blurs considerably when I do this. Strafing a mob, running at an angle to avoid beign dazed... all cause very noticeable blurring. It does this at 1440x900 as well. Any ideas on how to fix this and/or what may be causing it? TIA |

Not that I'm an expert here, but it sounds like the screen is lagging, or isn't refreshing fast enough. Can you set that higher? |

Under the settings in Windows, the only option is 60Hz. I've tried various combinations with no change. I ran my nVidia control panel optimizations and it is set at 60Hz in Windows and in the game. Still blurs when I move sidewways or rotate the view with the mouse. EDIT: If I set it to in game to 56Hz, it resets itself to 75Hz. Any other ideas? |

Do you know of a setting on the actual monitor to change it? Maybe within the monitor's menu? I know my hdtv I'm using is at 60 and I get no lag. I wish I could be more help. :? |

I asked some buds who all have WS that play WoW. I use the 2005WFP, and have no issues. None of them have issues like this either. I would consider contacting Acer, or finding someone with that specific monitor and see if they have the same issue. |

I took the monitor back, got tired of fiddling with it. Call me crazy, but I like things to work right. |
