Changing Monitor Type Manually
Although the setup utility automatically detects Plug and Play monitor
types, if you are not using a Plug and Play monitor, you can manually
select or change the monitor type.
The procedure varies slightly for each
graphics controller.
NOTE: If you are not sure which graphics controller is installed on the
computer, run Compaq Diagnostics to identify the installed controller.
