Why does my Acer G247HL Monitor have an abnormal picture?
- P
  Phillip RodriguezAug 17, 2025
  If your Acer Monitor is showing an abnormal picture, first, verify that the specifications of your graphics adapter and monitor are compatible to avoid input signal frequency mismatch. If you are using non-standard signals, use the OSD to adjust RESOLUTION, CLOCK, CLOCK-PHASE, H-POSITION, and V-POSITION. If the full-screen image is missing, use the OSD to select another resolution or vertical refresh timing. After adjusting the image size, wait a few seconds before changing the signal cable or powering off the monitor.
