Yes I was very fortunate to find this group and get support.  The support here succeeded where the emails with regular support was getting no where.

I too love my Viewsonic, especially its capability to rotate.  Unfortunately, like many others especially Dell from what I have seen, the have the weird trait that corrupts the digital EDID.

My original was a VP930b.  It did this 2 times, the first time I sent it in and they returned it un-repaired.  I sent it back and got it and it worked for about 4 months then out of the blue, got the famous no digital signal error.  Sent it back and they graciously sent me a brand new VP950b.  Straight form the box and bam, no digital signal.

Yet any other digital monitor I connected to it would work fine on the same port.  (I have a dual DVI Visiontek Pro)

Great group and thanks for the help!
