How do the monitor adjustment buttons work? Instructions are useless and while I can open the menu and the options i can't figure out what to do next.

1) The bottom button is exclusively for power on/off.2) The top four buttons each have a submenu. When you first press any one of the four, it brings up a menu of the four submenus.3) Choose the option that you are looking for by using the button immediately to its right. For example: pressing any one of the buttons brings up a menu, and then pressing the top button will activate the submenu for Preset Modes.4) Once the submenu is visible, use the button immediately to the right of the submenu option for the action desired.In most cases, you're probably better off leaving the defaults in place. 1) The bottom button is exclusively for power on/off.2) The top four buttons each have a submenu.

Shine a flashlight on the bottom corner of the screen and look for the small dots. These are very hard to see without elimination. The bottom dot is power on/off. Press the dots starting from the top to the bottom and their function will be disclosed on the screen.

I don't see any issue with these buttons. Tricky the first time but you can get them to work.

If you want to change the settings just hit menu and then an on screen menu will appear (menu is the little button above the power on/off button) hit menu again.When the settings appear notice the scroll up and scroll down, the arrow and the crooked arrow on the side.If you want to scroll up, hit up, down hit down, when you come to the setting you want to change hit the arrow and it will move over if you want to go back hit the crooked arrow.Use scroll up and down again to change settings. Once you have made all changes just hit the red x to exit the menu.

There's a "+" and "-" symbol buttons immediately behind the screen bezel on the bottom right, but they only seem to adjust the audio when there is no audio output, so adjust your audio before starting your video.If you're using an HDMI connection, you're laptop should be able to control the monitor. Be sure you're controlling the monitor by selecting it in your audio controls menu (available in your system tray or your system fold in Windows).If you're using VGA/DVI with a 3.5mm audio jack to the monitor, you again need to change the audio controls to control the audio jack instead of your computer speakers.It is weird that the audio controls only work w/o audio output.

Possible to use the 5th button from the right, from the series of buttons on the bottom right edge of the monitor. This changes the monitor screen size. If you have tried that and it still does not work, then go online for directions. Hope this helps.

I find it frustrating for simple desktop use. It will sometimes click things when you don't want it to. It's not precise or very accurate. It sometimes goes off on its tangent i.e it'll drift to the edge for no reason. It's terrible really. Use a mouse it'll cut down on the frustration level immensely. However I will add that as of now the trackpad is officially the only problem I have with it. Fanstastic computer otherwise.

Typically there is a Hotkey on the front of the monitor that will display the on-screen display for making adjustments to the monitor. The following instructions are from the user manual that can be found at; http://us.aoc.com/support/documents/pdf/documents/470

I just figured this out today, the middle one brings you to a screen where you can adjust the brightness, contrast etc, and the ones on the top and bottom are plus and minus for adjust the settings, hope this helped.

The Asus monitor seems to work just like any other second monitor. What you are asking is not how I use it with Windows 7 or know how to do. I don't think it works that way with any Windows 7 setup. But in any event, how I use the second monitor is to have it work as a part of a larger, single environment. Window 7 calls it "extend". I open up the window I want in the first monitor, make sure it isn't maximized, and then drag it to the Asus monitor. Once you do that any future windows you wish to open with that application will go there. It doesn't matter where your mouse is.

I had the first problem and called the ASUS support. They said it is not correct. Either get the monitor fixed or replaced. I didn't notice the second problem. But if it happens, I believe that press and hold the most left button on the monitor. The screen will center itself. Best Wishes. Li

I never have...but there is a MENU button. I go there for all adjustments. If that fails, I go to the online manual. I ALWAYS find the answer there!

No solution but one step away. Search customer reviews sitewide for: portrait monitor word document. There are many reviews of different monitors that discuss this. If you've never searched inside of reviews go to any product that has reviews and scroll down towards the bottom of the page. On the right is a special search box for just for reviews. Uncheck "Only search this product's reviews" and it will show every review on the site that contains your search words. Note that many monitors are VESA compliant yet a review is not necessarily going to mention it. I would try a variation on your search terms by leaving out words that will not likely be mentioned by a reviewer. They might just refer to it as a "mount" or say "I mounted it" and never mention VESA. There are also monitors that rotate on their own stand. Also you can view 1 full page of Word on any screen if you've zoomed out enough(CTRL while scrolling mouse wheel) so either size should work but it may be a question of comfort. Good luck to you.

Thank you all for your comments and tips. Ive just exchanged the monitor for another unit and the replacement unit does not have the same first start/powering on flickering. Btw, i tested the original unit on a ps4, 2 diferent desktops, and a laptop each with their own cable but the result were the same. In the manual it stated that flickering is "normal" due to the nature of the LED backlit, and call support only when the monitor no longer power on due to the flickering. (...?)

I wish I could give you an answer on how to adjust, but I was so disappointed with the wobbly stand and POOR picture, I sent my TV back for a refund within 24 hours of hooking it up! Best of luck.

You will have to lift the monitor on and eff each time. I just keep it at a comfortable standing height and keep a bar stool close by to sit on and still maintain my eye level. If you want something that more easy to switch several times a day, you will haev to get a push button operated one, that be more expensive.

It adjusts separately. I wish it were a bit more adjustable because my hands are still a little too high when the monitor is at the correct viewing angle. Maybe if I had a taller monitor it would be OK. It's still better than the other options out there, which don't seem to articulate separately.

You can install a driver, which I would highly recommend, you can adjust many settings from there. But I have played many games with this and for the price of $38 you cant get a better deal.

It's pretty simple to adjust. There is a clamp with a tightener on it. You just have to hold the monitor steady while adjusting the clamp. I don't adjust mine so often, but it is a very well designed stand. Good luck!
