Built-in Diagnostics
Your monitor has a built-in diagnostic tool that helps you determine if the screen abnormality
you are experiencing is an inherent problem with your monitor, or with your computer and
video card.
NOTE:
You can run the built-in diagnostics only when the video cable is unplugged
and the monitor is in self-test mode.
