Ultilities and Video Drivers
Setting High Resolution Mode for The Monitor Display
When purchasing a high resolution monitor, you might want to run the Galileo video setup utility supplied
with the computer. Galileo is a Windows-based utility used to change video resolutions, color depths and
refresh rates to match the capabilities of the monitor.
When using Galileo to change video resolution, perform the following steps:
1) From the Windows Program Manager, double click on the Control Panel icon.
2) Next, double click on the Galileo icon to display the video console.
3) Select the monitor resolution, color depth and refresh rate to match the monitor's specifications.
4) Select "Switches" that apply to the CAD software package. Digital recommends to leave these
settings to the "Enabled" or "On" position when not sure about their functions.
5) Click "OK" to save the settings and exit the utility.
NOTE Video selections shaded gray are not a valid choice due to the computer's maximum
video memory or installed controller type.
CAUTION
Do not select a monitor type setting that exceeds the monitor's resolution, refresh rate
(vertical synchronization)and interlace or non-interlace specifications. Refer to the
monitor's support documentation for performance specifications.
