Downloading the monitor driver

You can download and install the monitor INF (Information) driver file from http://www.hp.com/support.
1. Go to http://www.hp.com/support.
2. Select Software and Drivers.
3. Select your product type.
4. Enter your HP monitor model in the search field and follow the on-screen instructions.
This monitor is Plug and Play–compatible, and the monitor will work correctly without installing the INF file.
Monitor Plug and Play compatibility requires that the computer's graphics card is VESA DDC2–compliant and
that the monitor connects directly to the graphics card. Plug and Play does not work through separate BNC-
type connectors or through distribution buffers or boxes.
