Dell monitor 1707fpt manual how to adjust height

I'd call or email samsung. They actually want to know about product problems so the next edition is an improvement. Their Owner's manual should have contact info, or the install cd or google. Tomshardware.com
always seems to be very helpful and may have a "fix".

I would suggest you try this to fix your problem. Go to Control Panel from the start menu if you are using Windows 7 and Windows Vista. Click on the Display Setting and adjust the screen resolution to the recommended Screen resolution. On the Display Setting at the top of the you should see number 1 and 2 with a large box ,on the right side of these boxes there is a menu that you can click on, these menu are {Detect and Identify} click on Detect first and then Identify. I hope this solves your problem.

Probably a broken cord/cable. You'll need an multimeter/voltimeter to check it out.

I didn't think this model had a height adjustment. Have you adjusted the height in the past? Maybe the silver button detaches the stand from the lcd screen.

You need to take it apart and look at the solder joints on the 3 legs of the AC input jack, then look for bad caps with leaking/bulging tops as shwon in my pictures here:

Be real careful on the front bezel switch/flat cable assembly!

Here's the manual for your monitor.

If you got it with the stand it usually comes with, I'm afraid the height is not adjustable. The screen can tilt toward you and away from you, but that's all.

Sorry I don't have better news!

Make sure you have the plug in tight or maybe your need a new monitor

4:29:29 If locked in the down position, 1. Push the monitor down, 2. Press the Lock down / release button on the bottom rear of stand to unlock the monitor. 3. Lift the monitor up and extend the stand to the desired height.

Is it stuck, or just not adjustable? Try setting it on a phonebook. I'm kidding. If it is an adjustable base, sometimes they need a little downward pressure before the button will depress and allow it to move upward.

Thanks,
