hello everyone. i just got a new 24.8" makvision that looks and works great except for one thing. the bottom right corner is noticeable darker than the rest of the monitor. its not a big deal and i can live with it, but before i give up....i figured id ask here in case there is something i am missing. i havent messed with the B+ knob as i dont know what it does. could that be it or does it sound like something else? thanks in advance
 
the picture looks better than it actually is for some reason, but here it is anyway....

you can tell by comparing the meters on the bottom corners of the screen. i dont see a button on the remote board to degauss the monitor.....does the makvision do it automatically?

I'd try a degauss to see if it helps. Did the monitor come with that option built in? Does it have an on-screen menu?
 
try physcially moving your game.. rotate it, move it.. if that doesnt clear try a manual degausing coil.. buy or make one.. and if that doesnt work possible that the yoke is mounted badly.. and if that doesnt fix it, bad tube, bent shadow mask perhaps dunno.
 
i tried my degaussing coil that i had laying around. it didnt help. oh well....i can live with it. just sucks that a brand new monitor has a dumb issue. thanks for your help.
