Title: Picture Problems with my Sony PVM monitors
Post by: Hamster on February 09, 2011, 06:13:06 pm
My 19" Sony PVM monitor has a problem with some games . I play my Wii through it , and when I play old games like NES and Sega Master System the image is perfect , solid , stable . But when I play other games from like SNES , TG16 and new Wii games like Mario Galaxy the image gets shaky and you can especially see it in the whites , like its pulsing . The scan lines , or black dots aren't stable , its constantly shaky . But like I said older games , everything is fine , solid , stable picture . I see this difference playing virtual console switching back and forth between games .


With my 13" Sony PVM , the color red looks a lighter shade than it should . Its not red , its looks more like dark pink . Is this fixable ?

As far as the red color issue, its just an adjustment. Should be on the neck board, but I don't remember be'n inside a PVM monitor, so don't quote me. A faded color indicates the drive control for that color is set too low. If that won't fix it you have a weak color gun in the tube.
