burn, correctly calibrating screens for optimal performance and gaining

Screen Burn Removal Using Your PC.
If
you can hook your PC up to your screen burnt TV try this. Create a
folder in 'My Documents' called 'Screen Burn'. I'm not joking keep
reading. Now open up a picture editor like 'paint' available on all
Windows PC's. When you run 'Paint' a blank white document is what you
should have in front of you. That is exactly what you need. Select File
– Save as and name your picture 'white'. Be sure to save it in the
folder you just created.
Next you need to click on the
'black' section of the colour pallet at the bottom of the 'Paint'
window. After you have selected black click on the 'Fill' icon (a
tipped paint pot) on the left. Now simply click in the middle of your
white picture and it should become totally black. Select File – Save as
and name you picture 'black'. Again be sure to save it in the folder
called 'Screen Burn'. You don't need paint any more so you can shut it
down.
Now right click on the Windows desktop an select
Properties – Screen Saver and using the drop down list select 'My
Pictures Slide Show'. Now to configure the slide show. Click Settings
and configure as follows. Slide the bar to 'More' so that pictures
change frequently. Slide the next bar to 'Larger' so pictures fill the
whole screen. Now click the 'browse' button and find the folder you
made called 'Screen Burn'. In the next set of options:- Check 'Stretch
Small Pictures', Un-check 'Show File Names', Check 'Use Screen
Transitions' and finally un-check 'Allow Scrolling Through Pictures
With The Keyboard'. Save the options.
Different versions of
Windows might have slightly different configuration options but as long
as the result is a completely filled (no borders), alternating white
and black screen with no writing then it will probably help.
Now set your screen saver to 1 minute and leave the keyboard and mouse well alone.
As
with the 'snow' and 'signal pattern' leave this for a while to see some
results. If you use your TV for the PC then it might be a good idea to
use this as your regular screen saver and run it frequently.
The
only snag is the headache of connecting the PC up and the fact that
removal technique will not be running at your screens native
resolution.
