Question
remove PC or Tv notification
In the top left of the screen info comes up which obscures the log in choice for windows or Linux and does not enable me to click on a preference, and I am therefore stuck with booting up in Linux. Is there a way of preventing this appearing on the screen?

assuming that you tried different cable and tested your TV's input with a different device, DVD player or Blu ray player and it works, next step in troubleshooting should be replacing the Cable box...
I have P2570HD and have 2 channels that have lost the sound. Is there a fix for this?

Have you tried reversing the cables or tried using a different set of cables? Just reverse the cables or just un-plug them and replug them back in and see if that helps.
If you're having issues that isn't covered in their trouble shooting section and have looked in the Support area in the Downloads category and it isn't their then you might try e-Mailing them and asking. They usually don't have any updates unless the Monitors are having issues that come up later. TVs are usually a closed system, as it either works or it doesn't.
When the computer is set to output 1920x1080 the the display compresses horizontally. Yet my Blu-ray player displays properly. Is this a limitation of the PC-input interface?

This isn't too old of a Monitor if I remember so you might try going to the "Support" area of your Model type and on the right side will be a "Contact Us" area. There is also a "Find a service area near you" option so you might even be able to find help closer to you and save a shipping charge.
I purchased this monitor a year ago, the business that I purchased it will not help me and I was just wanting you to know that I am very sad that my monitor is not working very well, in goes black or just doesn't want to come on all the time. I am a true believer in all your products, I have purchased a top of the line refrigerator and a washer/dryer front loader and their pedistals, I love your products so when I purchased a new computer I bought this monitor LCD HDTV 24.6 SyncMaster P2570HD. I am unemployed now, lost my job this past Feb. I just wanted you to know that I am having issues with this monitor, and I was kind of in hopes that you could do something for me. I know computers, I know it is not a connection issue, or any settings or I need no updates, it worked fine for the first 10 months.

I'm pretty sure these forums are just for the "People" as I don't think Samsung looks here at all, they just host these forums. Just make a quick look in any forum for a possible quick solution but ALWAYS contact ANY manufacturer directly and go to the Support/Contact area for any problems. Try here for more information: http://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/product/LS25EMNKUY/ZA? Check out the contact area. They have a "Live Chat", E-Mail, or Twitter support so try one of those. Or you can wait on the phone and call them. (early AM is usually the best time to contact most manufacturers.) Either way have the Monitor information on hand, Model type, S/N, and the EXACT problems your having and what you have done to try to fix it. Hope this helps....
A video signal out from and HDMI source into the HDMI port on the back of the monitor looks very poor with blurring etc. the signal source is 1920/1080 and I've tried both from an Xbox and from a laptop with HDMI out. This problem only appears with and HDMI to HDMI cable. An HDMI out to DVI cable (DVI in on the back of the monitor) looks fine at the same resolution with no blurring and correct color.
Example photos are included showing two examples of HDMI source to DVI port on the back of the monitor and also HDMI to HDMI (which looks poor in both examples - the colors and resolution are bad).
Why is does this happen and what can I do about it?

You shouldn't need drivers for the Mac. It should recognize the monitor and display appropriate screen resolution. Otherwise, manually adjust the screen resolution up to 1920 by 1080.

Are you using the same cables to connect the DirecTV to Samsung as to other monitors? If not, the cables you are using on Samsung may be bad. Or worse yet, your inputs on your Monitor may be bad. Does your DirecTV have HDMI out that you can use? Or maybe try an older VCR with RCA to see if it is only B/W. If so, probably bad connector on Samsung. Make sure to try different RCA cables also.

Question
Monitor keeps forgetting internal settings?
I just realized that every time I turn the monitor back on after it's been turned off, all the settings go back to defaults. It's been doing that since I have it, but I never really noticed until now. The warranty is expired, but is there anything I can do about it? Thanks!

Try contacting Samsung/Support and look on the right side and you will see a "Contact Us" area. I believe they are the only ones that can help. Here, if this is your monitor: http://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/product/LS25EMNKUY/ZA?#

Well, you can reset the time an hour later? Are you using it as a TV or a PC monitor? "Auto" I think basically just changes Daylight Savings time Automatically for you. Try going into the menu and set it to manual and set it to Daylight Savings or turn Daylight off depending on what month it is. See if that helps. If you already have then try going to the Support area and try one of the "Contact Us" options. Sorry I can't help more. I just bought a 32" one for my kids X-Box only set-up so I guess I'll find out myself.
What would cause the TV to have no sound other than the sound it makes when turned on or off.
The TV passed the sound test as does make the Samsung sound when turned on or off, but when on a channel it has zero sound. It doesn't matter if trying to use the interna speakers or if plugged into a headset.

First make sure the speakers are not muted. You can use the remote control for this or the buttons on the monitor. Then, make sure the volume isn't turned all the way down. The last option depends on what your source for TV is. If it is just a coaxial cable screwed into the tuner, then that's it. However, if you are trying to get video from a source such as DVD, VDR, cable box, or satellite box, they may have thier own volume controls to deal with. Check those.
I cannot get anywhere with your web page for this product. All the download links or email links do not work. I cannot get any support in anyway. Is your system down or do you cut off support for products after they reach maturity? I need this Monitor working correctly. It is giving off fumes, smelling like acidy plastic odors, which burn my nose and lips. What do I do about it?
Sincerely Dr. Wm Berit
