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
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.
Video Device Drivers
To take full advantage of the Matrox MGA-1164SG 3-D video controller 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.
The video device drivers are provided on the Ready-to-Configure CD that comes with
your computer. Instructions for installing the device drivers are provided on the
Ready-to-Configure CD in the Matrox README file that corresponds to your
operating system. (When you open the README file, a prompt might appear
requesting you to specify Mystique or Millennium. Specify Mystique.)
If your computer has IBM-preinstalled software, video device drivers have already
been installed on the hard disk in your PC. However, the device driver installation
instructions in the Matrox README file will be helpful if you ever need to reinstall
the device drivers; if you want to change video resolution, color depth, or monitor
settings; or if you need information on obtaining and installing updated device
drivers.
