Video device drivers
To take full advantage of the graphics adapter in your computer, some
operating systems and application programs require custom software, known
as video device drivers. These device drivers provide support for greater
speed, higher resolution, more available colors, and flicker-free images.
Device drivers for the integrated graphics subsystem and a README file with
instructions for installing the device drivers are preinstalled on models with
preinstalled operating systems. If your computer has IBM-preinstalled
software, video device drivers have already been installed on the hard disk. If
your computer did not come with a preinstalled operating system, you can
download device drivers from http://www.ibm.com/pc/support/ on the
World Wide Web.
See “Chapter 7. Getting help, service, and information” on page 99 for more
information.
Changing monitor settings
To get the best possible image on your screen and to reduce flicker, you might
need to reset the resolution and refresh rate of your monitor. You can view and
change monitor settings through your operating system using the instructions
provided in the README files on the
Software Selections CD that comes with
your computer. Refer to your operating system documentation for further
information on monitor settings.
Attention
Before you change any monitor settings, be sure to review the
information that comes with your monitor. Using a resolution or refresh
rate that is not supported by your monitor might cause the screen to
become unreadable and could damage the monitor. The information that
comes with your monitor usually includes the resolutions and refresh
rates that the monitor supports. If you need additional information,
contact the manufacturer of the monitor.
To minimize screen flicker and jitter, set your monitor for the highest
noninterlaced refresh rate that the monitor supports. If your monitor complies
with the VESA Display Data Channel (DDC) standard, it is probably already
set to the highest refresh rate that the monitor and video controller can
support. If you are not sure if your monitor is DDC-compliant, refer to the
documentation provided with the monitor.
