  Getting the most from your BenQ monitor

Getting the most from your BenQ monitor

To gain the most benefit from your new BenQ LCD monitor, you should install the custom 
BenQ LCD Monitor driver software as provided on the BenQ local website. See 

Downloading 

the LCD Monitor driver files from the Internet on page 17

 for details.

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. 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 18

.

• 

How to upgrade the monitor on an existing computer on page 19

.

Downloading the LCD Monitor driver files from the Internet

1.  Make sure your computer is connected to the Internet.
2.  Visit the BenQ local website.
3.  Download the correct driver files through the selection of product name, model name, 

and file category. The website layout and content may vary by region/country.

4.  On your computer, have your driver files extracted into an empty folder. Remember the 

file location the files are extracted to.

• 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.
