Monitor problems.

[Willy Red]

First off I need to talk to someone with the same monitor as me. I have an Hewlett Packard M90 19' monitor. My problem is I can't get any of the buttons on the front to work!!!!!! When I press and hold down the "select" button like it says to do in the manual the menu doesn't come up!!! I've been wanting to adjust it for a few weeks now without any of the buttons working. What am I doing wrong or is it a problem with the monitor??? Pleeeease help.

Let me take a stab at this

Most monitors have four buttons, with dual functions.

The left button brings up the menu. Press it first.

The up and down arrow buttons are then used to "highlight" the thing you want to adjust:

HOrizontal size - make it wider or narrow to fill the screen
Horizontal position - center the image on the screen
Vertical size - dtto
Vertical size -Ditto
Contrast
brightness
degauze - demagnetize to get the fuzzies out of the corner
YADA
YADA
YADA- whater else you can adjust

Some monitors have little symbols depicting the adjustment, so you can do it if even if you can't read english. Just look at the symbol, and figure out which adjustment it is.

After highlighting the selection, THEN press select
Now go back to the up and down arrow keys to adjust the selection

Press select when you are done, or just leave it alone and the menu will run and hide.

Hope this helps

Thanks for the reply but I can't even get the menu to show up. So I can't highlight anything. It says in the manual to press and hold the "select" button which doesn't do anyhing.
