There are three components that make up the screen mode:
1. Resolution: This is the number of pixels displayed on the screen horizontally
and vertically.
2. Color Depth: This defines the number of different colors that the screen can
display at the same time.
3. Refresh rate: Measures how long it takes to rescan the entire screen. Higher
frequencies reduce flicker.
Some monitors support these modes through the video connector. In this case, the
video component identifies the supported modes from the monitor. If the monitor
does not support these modes through a connector, the video software chooses a
set of common screen modes for the monitor.
The software supports the modes listed in Table 4-1.
