screen jups in size

[canadian_divx]

when ever i open a bright window the screen JUMPS, it gets biugger for a half of a second. like the projection gets bigger then go's back to normal size, why is this happening??

It's because of the power supply in the screen. The better the PS, the less it jumps. Cheap screens usually have cheap PS:s so they jump more. Some even jump ALOT.

The effect happens when you change a large part of the screan from dark to bright and vice versa. For instance, like you say, opening a big bright window (with a significantly darker background behind it).

In short, it's nothing to worry about.

I had that problem with a Viewsonic 17" CRT. I exchanged it for a Sony and had no further problems.

doesn't seem to mean much since he has a sony. rather high-end one, too.

i don't remember any jumping with my 19" flat crt viewsonic.
