I upgraded from my old 17" Acer and WOW what a difference. The FULL HD resolution is fantastic and the brightness nearly blew my eye sockets out.

I bought a similar BenQ monitor to this one this week, it was the G2420HD model. They are the same. After buying this monitor i was amazed at the picture quality and how easy it was to set up (No software or stuff to install), Flawless picture.

To start with, I am REALLY happy with this monitor. I did a lot of research and was still unsure when I decided to order the G2420HD because.

Got it for $150. Well worth it . No HDMI, but it is something I did not need. Great contrast, brightness, and vivid colors. Looks good Does not have HDMI input or built in speakers as advertised. Also the screen is Matte not Glossy. The cabinet is glossy.

The only real bad point is the glare off the screen. Your eyes will be watering for awhile until they adjust to it The only real bad point is the glare off the screen. Your eyes will be watering for awhile until they adjust to it

3. How to assemble your monitor hardware
If the computer is turned on you must turn it off before continuing. Do not plug-in or turn-on the power to the monitor until instructed to do so.
1. Attach the monitor base.
Please be careful to prevent damage to the monitor. Placing the screen surface on an object like a stapler or a mouse will crack the glass or damage the LCD substrate voiding your warranty. Sliding or scraping the monitor around on your desk will scratch or damage the monitor surround and controls.
Protect the monitor and screen by clearing a flat open area on your desk and placing a soft item like the monitor packaging bag on the desk for padding. Gently lay the screen face down on a flat clean padded surface. While holding the monitor firmly against the desk, pull the monitor stand arm upwards clear of the monitor. Orient and align the stand base socket with the end of the stand arm, then push them together until they click and lock into place.
Gently attempt to pull them back apart to check that they have properly engaged.
Carefully lift the monitor, turn it over and place it upright on its stand on a flat even surface.
You should position the monitor and angle the screen to minimize unwanted reflections from other light sources.
How to assemble your monitor hardware
2. Connect the PC video cable.
Do not use both DVI-D cable and D-Sub cable on the same PC. The only case in which both cables can be used is if they are connected to two different PCs with appropriate video systems.

Either

Connect one end of the DVI-D cable to the monitor DVI-D jack and the other end to the DVI-D port on your computer. (optional)

The DVI-D format is used for direct digital connection between source video and digital LCD monitors or projectors. The digital video signals produce a superior quality picture than analog video signals.
Connect the plug of the D-Sub cable (at the end without the ferrite filter) to the monitor D-Sub jack. Connect the other plug of the D-Sub cable (at the end with the ferrite filter) to the computer video D-Sub jack. Connect the plug of the HDMI cable to the monitor video jack. Connect the other end of the cable to the computer video jack. (optional) Tighten all finger screws to prevent the plugs from accidently falling out during use.
3. Connect the power cable to the monitor.
Plug one end of the power cord into the jack labelled POWER IN on the rear of the monitor. Do not connect the other end to a power outlet just yet.
4. Route the cables via the cable clip.
Release the cable retaining clip by squeezing the clip inwards as illustrated. Position the cables together and reinsert the clip over them to retain the cables neatly in place behind the monitor stand.
5. Connect-to and turn-on the power.
Plug the other end of the power cord into a power outlet and turn it on.
Picture may differ from product supplied for your region.
Turn on the monitor by pressing the power key. Turn on the computer too, and follow the instructions in Section 4: Getting the most from your BenQ monitor on page 11 to install the monitor software.
How to detach the stand base
1. Prepare the monitor and area.
Turn off the monitor and the power before unplugging the power cable. Turn off the computer before unplugging the monitor signal cable.
Protect the monitor and screen by clearing a flat open area on your desk and placing a soft item like a towel on the desk for padding, before laying the screen face down on a flat clean padded surface.
2. Press the locking clips to detach the monitor base from the monitor stand arm.
4. Getting the most from your BenQ monitor
To gain the most benefit from your new BenQ color LCD flat screen monitor, you should install the custom BenQ LCD Monitor driver software as provided on the BenQ LCD Monitor CD-ROM. The circumstances under which you connect and install your BenQ LCD Monitor will determine which process you need to follow to successfully install the BenQ LCD Monitor driver software. These circumstances relate to which version of Microsoft Windows you are using, and whether you are connecting the monitor and installing the software onto a new computer (without existing monitor driver software), or whether you are upgrading an existing installation (which already has existing monitor driver software) with a newer monitor. In either case however, the very next time you turn on your computer (after connecting the monitor to your computer), Windows will automatically recognise the new (or different) hardware, and will launch its Found New Hardware wizard. Follow the wizard instructions until it asks you to select a monitor model. At that point, click the Have Disk button, insert the BenQ LCD Monitor CD-ROM and select the appropriate monitor model. Further details and step-by-step instructions for both an automatic (new) or upgrade (existing) installation follow. See: How to install the monitor on a new computer on page 12. How to upgrade the monitor on an existing computer on page 13

If you require a User Name and Password to login to your Windows computer, you must be logged on as an Administrator or as a member of the Administrators group in order to install the monitor driver software. Furthermore, if your computer is connected to a network which has security access requirements, network policy settings may prevent you from installing software on your computer.
Getting the most from your BenQ monitor
How to install the monitor on a new computer
This instruction details the procedure for selecting and installing the BenQ LCD Monitor driver software on a new computer which has never had a monitor driver installed before. This instruction is only suitable for a computer which has never been used before, and for which the BenQ LCD Monitor is the first ever monitor to be connected to it.
If you are adding the BenQ LCD Monitor to an existing computer that has already had another monitor connected to it (and has monitor driver software installed), you should not be following these instructions. You should instead be following the instructions for How to upgrade the monitor on an existing computer.
1. Follow the instructions in How to assemble your monitor hardware on page 7.
When Windows starts, it will automatically detect the new monitor and launch the Found New Hardware Wizard. Follow the prompts until it displays the option to Install Hardware Device drivers.
2. Insert the BenQ LCD Monitor CD-ROM into a CD drive on the computer. 3. Check Search for a suitable driver for my device option, and click Next. 4. Check the option for CD-ROM drives (uncheck all others) and click Next. 5. Look to confirm that the wizard has selected the correct name of your monitor and click Next. 6. Click Finish. 7. Restart the computer.
How to upgrade the monitor on an existing computer
This instruction details the procedure for manually updating the existing monitor driver software on your Microsoft Windows computer. It is currently tested as compatible for Windows XP and Windows Vista Operating System (OS).
The BenQ LCD Monitor driver for your model may well function perfectly with other versions of Windows, however, as at the time of writing, BenQ has done no testing of this driver on other versions of Windows and cannot guarantee its operation on those systems.
Installing monitor driver software involves selecting an appropriate information file (.inf) on the BenQ LCD Monitor CD-ROM for the particular model monitor you have connected, and letting Windows install the corresponding driver files from the CD. You need only steer it in the right direction. Windows has an Upgrade Device Driver Wizard to automate the task and guide you through the file selection and installation process. See: How to install on Windows Vista systems on page 14.

How to install on Windows XP system on page 15.
How to install on Windows Vista systems
1. Open Display Settings.

9. Select the correct folder name of your monitor from provided driver list, and click Next.
This will copy and install the appropriate monitor driver files to your computer.

10. Click Close.

You do not need to restart Windows Vista, as the BenQ LCD monitor drivers will operate immediately with no further action required by you.
How to install on Windows XP system

If there is only one monitor in the list, it will already be selected for you.
4. Click the Properties button.
The Monitor Properties window will display. If the driver provider is listed as BenQ, and the model matches that of your new monitor, the proper drivers are already installed, and you need do nothing further. Cancel out of these property windows. However, if BenQ is not listed as the manufacturer, or the correct model is not currently shown, you will need to continue with these instructions.
5. Click the Driver tab and the Update Driver button.

9. Select (single-click) the correct name of your monitor from provided driver list on the CD, and click the Next button.

10. Click Finish.

This will close the wizard and return you to the Monitor Properties window.
11. Click Close, OK, and OK.
This will close the Display Properties windows. You do not need to restart Windows XP, as the BenQ LCD monitor drivers will operate immediately with no further action required by you.

5. Picture optimization

The easiest way to obtain an optimal display from an analog (D-Sub) input is to use the AUTO key function. Press the AUTO key to optimize the currently displayed image to the screen.
When you connect a digital video output using a digital (DVI or HDMI) cable to your monitor, the AUTO key and the Auto Adjustment function will be disabled, because the monitor will automatically display the best image. Please ensure that the connected graphic card on your computer is set to the native resolution of the monitor when you use the AUTO key function.
If you wish, you can always adjust the screen geometric settings manually using geometry menu items. To assist you in this endeavour, BenQ has provided a screen test image utility which you can use to check for screen color, grayscale and line gradient display. 1. Run the test program auto.exe from CD-ROM. You could also use any other image, such as the desktop of your operating system. However, we recommend that you use auto.exe. As you run auto.exe, a test pattern displays. 2. Press the AUTO key on the monitor. 3. Press the MENU key to access the monitor On-Screen Display (OSD) menu. 4. Use the or keys to select DISPLAY and press the ENTER key to enter the menu.

5. If you notice a vertical noise (like a curtain effect-shimmering of vertical lines), press the or keys to select Pixel Clock and press the ENTER key. Then press the or keys to adjust the monitor until the noise disappears. 6. If you notice a horizontal noise, press the or keys to select Phase and press the ENTER key. Then press the or keys to adjust the monitor until the noise disappears.
