The monitor has pixels that are always dark or too bright
•
This condition is normal and inherent in the TFT technology used in active-matrix LCD
screens. Gateway’s inspection standards keep these to a minimum. If you feel these pixels
are unacceptably numerous or dense on your display, contact Gateway Customer Care to
identify whether a repair or replacement is justified based on the number of pixels affected.

General
I have the monitor connected to my notebook’s VGA port and I see no image on the screen.
You have two options:
•
If your notebook supports dual displays, you can use both your notebook’s display and
this monitor in extended desktop multi-monitor mode. See Windows Help to learn how
to enable multiple monitors.
•
You can also use this monitor as your primary monitor and not use the notebook’s
screen. Notebook computers typically have an F
N
key combination that lets you toggle
between your notebook’s display and an externally attached display. On Gateway
notebooks, this key combination is F
N
+F4. The F4 key is located along the top row of
keys. See your notebook user guide for more information.
