Acer AT2001 20 in. EDTV-Ready LCD Television

Acer AT2001 cannot use as monitor (by 2 users)


posted by weipawalters on Mar 15, 2008


Hi
When I plug my Acer AT2001 into my PC the screen divides so that the left hand side shows on the right of my monitor and the right shows on the left of my monitor. The mouse still acts like the screen is normal so it is very difficult to use. There was no driver with the TV do I need to download one?
Please help - very frustrating
I have the same problem.

Hi,

You need to lower down the screen resolution of your PC prior to plugging in the Acer AT2001. The Acer AT2001 maximum/native resolution is 800 X 600. In some instances, lowering the screen refresh rate of the PC might also be required.

Pls don't be surprised if doing so, the icons would be a lot bigger and for some users might be inappropriate for desktop use. Additionally, it will be very bright.

Hope this be of initial help/idea. Pls post back how things turned up or should you need additional information.

Good luck and kind regards.

Thank you for using FixYa.
