Hardware Requirements

This monitor requires a computer with a suitable on-board sub-system or 
Video Adapter card that can support SXGA 1280 x 1024, XGA 1024 x 768, 
SVGA 800 x 600, or VGA 640 x 480 at 60 Hz.  For optimal performance, the 
recommended video setting is 1280 x 1024 at 60 Hz.  The monitor has the 
capability to receive input either from an analog graphics adapter or a Digital 
Visual Interface DVI-D graphics adapter.  If your PC is not already equipped 
with a suitable graphics adapter, you must install one.  If needed, contact 
your dealer to purchase a compatible graphics adapter.
