While i haven't noticed anyone with problems in the last 20 pages, does anyone know if there have been problems with this, when someone receives a DOA monitor is screwed?

You have some level of protection from ebay. Â Also many of the sellers were offering 14 or 30 day replacement warranties. Â Just check them out. Â I have only read of a few (about 2-3) that were in fact DOAs. Â That is out of about 1000+ monitors.

ebay! Â First I have heard of a Catleap being sent without a Welltronics brick. Â Just check the specs in the OP to make sure your replacement matches volt/amp.

AMDs are a pain with Catleaps. Â Seriously. Â I hear more people with issues trying to connect to AMD - barely any from nVidia folk. Â Not a judgement, just my experience. Â I wish I could help, but it seems some AMD cards are fickle. Â I was PMing with two guys this week both with identical cards, AMDs, with different issues. Â They finally got them to work. Â Don't know how to be honest - magic GPU dust perhaps?

All I can say is - run it on its own - no other monitor (if you can), make sure you're in the dual-dvi port (yes peeps use the wrong port all the time), use only the AMD card (if you have both in there - couldn't tell when you meant your 285), baby steps essentially. Â Work from the very beginning to see where it breaks.
