PC Utilities review:
Defects within monitor displays are often transitory and hard to pinpoint. Typically, they are as spectral as ghosts, glimpsed out the corner of your eye. So much so that sometimes it's hard to be sure whether there's anything wrong with your screen at all. Maybe it's just that you've been staring at it a little bit too long? To find out if you have a burnt out cathode tube or, more worryingly, a burnt out retina, look no further. This collection of test screens will have you pinpointing any visual defects in a matter of seconds.
Monitor Test Lite offers a multitude of diagnostic tools that you can use to check the operation of your screen. It provides alignment grids, colour charts, test patterns and mono displays, all of which can be used to either regulate your monitor's performance or to help you set it up. It's easy to use, as every one of its test displays is accessible from a straightforward menu screen. The menu is subdivided into sections - the top one contains tests that are suitable for all types of display, including unusual monochrome screens. Beneath that are tests designed for colour monitors including all CGA, EGA, VGA and MCGA. The third section provides testing options that are specifically for VGA and MCGA monitors. Overall then, Monitor Test Lite may look a little primitive, but it's ideal for checking faulty colouration setups or an uneven display.
