| | | | .... via the menu-buttons on the actual physical monitor.
By this I mean that on my old CRT monitor's facia, one one had pushed the
necessary buttons in the necessary order, one could alter - as in move from
left-to-right, brightness, contrast and make more convex/concave the sides,
bottom & top of the screen window image (?) - the visible screen via the
monitors case buttons & then the OSD. Mostly true on my new Dell SE198WFP 19'
flat-panel, all apart from one glaringly annoying OSD menu option button,
that being the 'Positioning' button (along w/auto-adjust & image settings),
which does the concave/convex thing and is shown onscreen as a button
w/arrows pointing to the cardinal-points to suggest previous statement.
Obviously this is the button I need, with medium-to-high importance, to
use; but I cannot, for, whereas w/the old CRT, this button was readily and
easily available to all, on this new TFT, all the other menu-buttons (colour,
advanced & OSD settings plus audio/factory reset etc) are available and
bright-white in text-colour, but the positioning (and auto-adjust etc) button
is in dull grey and cannot be accessed (by me anyway).
This monitor came w/a Dell Vostro 410 tower (Intel Core2 Wuad CPU/2GB RAM,
32-bit), and is great APART from this problem. However, there was no
instruction manual in any of the boxes, so either there wasn't one, or mine
was mis-packed. Either-way, I do not know how to manipulate the buttons
either on the OSD or the monitor's own butons. PLEASE, some advice and help?
Many premature thanks...

Hi DrJ,
Could this be the issue?
"NOTE: Positioning and Image Settings are only available when you are using
the analog (VGA) connector."
This is taken from the documentation for your monitor. Thanks to Carey for
the link.
