Thanks, I have a question, when I play Stalker on one monitor and have a website on the other the cursor won't go to the second monitor, I have to exit the game, I was hoping I could just pause the game and post on the website on the second monitor, Can I do this? By the way my new Dell is way brighter than my old 2405!!!!

Re: Anybody have a Dell E248WFP Monitor?

Some games i can pause it and move right over to the other monitor. Some i have to pause then minimize the game to go the other screen then use the alt-tab keys to open the game again.

Re: Anybody have a Dell E248WFP Monitor?

Here's a screen shot of the same website on the 2 different Dells, the E248WFP on the left and the 2405 on the right, my old 2405 has better back lighting (more even) and better color reproduction (in my eyes), the E248 is much brighter and has uneven back lighting (top half of screen is darker than bottom half)....But overall I like the E248, especially the price and playing games like Stalker on it I must say is better than the 2405, no lag....
