Plasma TV/Display Image Retention
Your plasma or LCD display may permanently retain an
image if a still image is displayed for prolonged periods
(plasma TVs are particularly susceptible to image
retention). To avoid image retention, follow these
guidelines:
Always use a low-contrast screen saver from your
■
HP Digital Entertainment Center display settings
(select Start, Control Panel, Appearance and
Themes, Choose a screen saver).
Avoid keeping a stationary (static) image on the
■
screen for extended periods. Stationary images
include, but are not limited to:
Media Center User Interface or PC desktop.
■
Still images and photos, or video paused for
■
prolonged periods.

longer than the previous still image was displayed.
