Is it common for this not to work.. even after being just a few days old? I am still getting white dust all over my electronics and such.

No this is not common. I have had my Venta humidifier for 4 months and replaced the cartridge once and have not had any issues or white dust. I would contact customer support. Good luck.

I'm using the electric blower to clean it once in a while. It surely does collect dust and white color becomes gray!!

Make sure the fan is not blocked with dust and is working, Mine works fine after I removed the plug on the end and wired it directly to the outlet. I went through 3 of these in 6 months but removed the plug and it works like a champ.

probably the mini fan from the back of the system is full of dust, dust it off with a vacuum hose very carefully it might work. good luck.

Yes, I noticed dust on the tv screen and also on plastic surrounding screen. No big deal, just wipe off every couple of days.

First put on some latex gloves, then wipe down the computer screen with the dusting cloth in the package. Make absolutely sure the screen has NO dust/dirt particles. Try laying it flat on the table and looking across the screen to be sure its clear. With the gloves still on remove the backing on the Screen protector and try to only hold it by the edges. Line up the notch with the windows button on the bottom of the screen and allow the screen protector to adhere from the center of the device to the outside edges. Smooth the air bubbles out with the long side of your credit card wrapped with the cleaning cloth from the center of the screen to the edges. As long as the screen and the protector are clean and free of dust and dirt this should work. If not, I'm pretty sure this is why they come in packs of 2, I guess they give you one to practice with. CLEAN is the key. One tiny speck of dust is all you need to get a bubble that won't go away

Gosh, I should ask you where you find the dust bags when you do. I haven't even taken mine out of the box yet. Glad you said it works great and sorry I am not much help.

Mine seems fine. Have you tried to reach the seller? Other than returning the product if you felt it was old, I do not know what you can do.

I have owned this one for about 6 months and have not experienced any white dust. I am very happy with the performance of this unit.

white dust is probably referring to mineral deposits, if this is the case then it's the fact that you have hard water that causes this and not the humidifier.

I have a two year old 16GB Zen that now gets the white screen frequently. It is temperature related. The one thing I have found that will always fix it is putting it in a plastic bag with a Sorb-it silica gel canister (to absorb condensation), and putting in the refrigerator for about five minutes. I also keep it in the plastic bag while cold to prevent condensation. I took great care of my Zen and am dissatisfied with its short life-span. I will avoid Creative products until I know this problem has been solved.

It could be that the temperature in the room has been reached. Also, I believe the manual says that this could happen and that there is a mechanism at the pilot that traps dust, etc. That needs to stay clean. . My suggestion - call the technical assistance line and they were VERY VERY helpful in resolving an issue that I had!

I haven't cleaned mine yet but it is dusty, I will use the brush attachment from my vacuum, but the aerosol can used to clean computers also seems like a good idea!

In theory it would have to work, so I am thinking it could be damaged. Try it with a PC and if it doesn't work either ask for a new one during the warranty period.

I had static also. Am returning the device and ordering a new one from a different seller. I suspect the quality control may not be optimal and some may have static and others not.

Whenever using ANY power supply, there is always gonna be some warmth/heat coming from the unit regardless of whats connected to it. This is perfectly normal. Now if its HOT to the touch, that is not good. Replace immediately. Hope this helps. Be safe ....Chris.
