This chapter will guide you through the correct installation procedures for the LCD
monitor.
When you unpack your LCD monitor, make sure the following items are included in
the box and are in good condition. If you find that any of these items are damaged
or missing, please contact your dealer immediately.

This LCD monitor DOES NOT require any special drivers.
For PC system applications with a DVI-D & D-sub analog input source, the
necessary drivers are supplied by the video card manufacturer and may be found
on the diskettes supplied with the video card that came with your computer.
Windows 98/XP/2000 drivers for both the display and the video card are supplied
on the Windows 98/XP/2000 CD or diskettes. Unfortunately, Microsoft did not
provide a complete listing of the monitors at the time of the initial retail release. You
may use the standard SXGA (1280X1024) for 17" LCD monitors and XGA
(1024x768) for 15" LCD monitors as the monitor type. The video card must also be
set up correctly in Windows 98/XP/2000. Make sure that the video output of the
VGA card is listed in Section 6.1 or check your video card manual or Windows
98/XP/2000 "Read Me" file for further information on the video card. After these
issues have been resolved, continue the setup procedure as described below.
1. Before connecting any devices, please make sure that your monitor and all
other equipment are turned off.
2. Place the monitor on a stable horizontal surface such as a table or a desk.
3. Attach the power cable to the monitor and then to a power outlet.
4. The LCD monitor comes with two video cables (D-sub 15-pin to DVI-I 29-PIN
and DVI-D 24-pin to 24-pin) for computer video applications; one each for
analog and digital signals.
