✎Depending on the content of the screen, at times the shadows of
two small horizontal lines may appear on the screen. This is not
a defect and is normal for all aperture grille type displays. The
shadows are two damper wires that reduce the monitor's
susceptibility to vibration.
Universal Driver Manager
This monitor may require a graphics driver (and/or .INF file) that is
compatible with your computer’s graphics adapter. A CD-ROM
containing an .INF file is included with this monitor (see the section on
Information Files). Compaq has also created a Universal Driver
Manager (UDM) release that supports all graphics adapters found on
Compaq Deskpro and Compaq Workstation products. The UDM eases
graphics driver deployment across Compaq platforms ensuring cross-
compatibility and backward-compatibility. The resulting solution
enables customers to manage and control ongoing software maintenance
costs. The UDM is available on the Compaq Support Software CD for
Compaq Desktop, Portable, and Workstation Products and the Compaq
web site (www.compaq.com).
Information Files
This monitor includes a CD-ROM with two information files that should
be installed onto your computer—an .INF file and an .ICM file. The
.INF file defines monitor resources and provides specifications used by
Microsoft Windows 95/98 to install support software for certain
hardware devices. The .INF file ensures monitor compatibility and
optimization with your computer’s graphics adapter.
The .ICM file provides color matching consistency from monitor screen
to printer and is activated from within the graphics programs that have
this feature. To install these files on your computer, insert the Compaq
CD-ROM into the computer's CD tray and follow the instructions from
the menu that appears on the monitor screen. The CD-ROM is located in
the Program License Agreement packet. INF file updates are
downloadable by clicking on:
