Customising your display settings
Your pre-installed copy of Windows 95 or Windows for
Workgroups is configured for a standard VGA monitor resolution
(640 x 480 pixels), so that Windows is sure to display correctly
whatever monitor you have.
However, most modern monitors, and all Apricot monitors, can
display in higher resolutions than standard VGA. You can change
the setting to one that more closely matches your own monitor, to
get the best performance from it.
Display settings in Windows 95
The monitor setting is changed by using the Change Display Type
option in the Display Properties dialog. This offers a list of major
monitor manufacturers and models, including all current Apricot
monitors. See Windows 95 on-line Help for instructions on
changing display settings.
Tip
A quick route to changing the monitor type in Windows 95 is to right-
click with the mouse while pointing at the background area of the
Windows desktop, then select Properties from the pop-up menu. This
displays the Display Properties dialog. You will find the Change Display
Type option on the Settings tab.
Display settings in Windows for Workgroups
The monitor setting is changed by using the ATI Desktop utility in
the Apricot group. Open ATI Desktop, choose Screen Adjustment,
then choose Select Monitor. This offers a list of all current Apricot
monitors. Once you have selected the correct monitor, you can
select the required resolution. See ATI Desktop's on-line Help for
more information.
