Configuring the Video Display

The first time you start the system, it uses the installed video display adapter running at
1024 x 768 to run the video display. For the system to use the installed video adapter at
other display resolutions, you must configure the video display driver. Refer to the
documentation delivered with the video display adapter for information about available
settings. For information on using the Display Properties dialog, refer to the operating
system documentation and Help.
