Getting the most from your BenQ monitor
4. Getting the most from your BenQ monitor
To gain the most benefit from your new BenQ color LCD flat screen monitor, you should install
the custom BenQ LCD Monitor driver software as provided on the BenQ LCD Monitor CD-ROM.
The circumstances under which you connect and install your BenQ LCD Monitor will determine
which process you need to follow to successfully install the BenQ LCD Monitor driver software.
These circumstances relate to which version of Microsoft Windows you are using, and whether
you are connecting the monitor and installing the software onto a new computer (without existing
monitor driver software), or whether you are upgrading an existing installation (which already has
existing monitor driver software) with a newer monitor.
In either case however, the very next time you turn on your computer (after connecting the
monitor to your computer), Windows will automatically recognize the new (or different)
hardware, and will launch its
Found New Hardware
wizard.
Follow the wizard instructions until it asks you to select a monitor model. At that point, click the
Have Disk
button, insert the BenQ LCD Monitor CD-ROM and select the appropriate monitor
model. Further details and step-by-step instructions for either an automatic (new) or upgrade
(existing) installation, see:
•
How to install the monitor on a new computer on page 12
.
•
How to upgrade the monitor on an existing computer on page 13
.
• If you require a User Name and Password to login to your Windows computer, you must be
logged on as an Administrator or as a member of the Administrators group in order to install the
monitor driver software. Furthermore, if your computer is connected to a network which has
security access requirements, network policy settings may prevent you from installing software
on your computer.
• To check the name of the purchased model, refer to the specification label on the back of the
monitor.
