Hmm... the screen is not big enough to notice mayor problems with the image. (If we were talking about 50''+ screens DVDs DO look awful)

Anyways, you can find an easy and basic calibration guide for screens on any THX's DVDs. (Of course, there are better detailed guides, but I wouldn't bother for PC play back)

How ya doing, buddy?

I downloaded on a recommendation from a friend the VLC media player and it was a significant improvement and seems to have the tools to make it look good. But maybe I just had too high an expectation that I could get crystal clear clarity from a PC. I had a dual monitor setup and thought it would be cool to have some anime or movie in close proximety while I would work on projects or homework. The LCD does kick ass with photo editing and gaming. I haven't seen any ghosting on this model whatsoever. The only thing that stands out is in darkened areas of games or dvds the black level is more greyish white. It might just be the lighting of the LCD is really high.

This is really a learning experience so far for me.
I wouldn't change my PC's LCD for any CRT out there... there is way too many massive advantages vs some small disadvantages.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Isn't it also supposed to be easier on the eyes due to its lack of refresh rate? I know my 17" LCD is easier to look at for hours on end over my old 23" CRT.
That's one of the most important reasons for me, 5 hours in front of a CRT and I feel like my eyes are burning and my head is about to collapse, 8 Hours in front of a LCD and it feels like nothing... there is much less radiation going on... and of course, space, power consumption and another goodies.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
