Sony GDM-W900 color problem when turning 90°

Post by voltr »

Hi, i just bought an Elsa Ecomo 24H96 which is like GDM-W900 and have a question:

When i turn the monitor 90° the colors in the whole picture get different. Maybe there is a problem with something loose inside? When the monitor is in its normal position the picture is perfect!

What can i do?

Turn it 90 degrees, turn it off, turn it back on. Should be fixed.

Each time you turn a set on it will degause itself for its current position.
The Earths magnetic field is to blame.

I always turn off and unplug my monitor before I rotate it.
