Problem Monitor settings aren’t automatically detected
1
Cause
If a monitor was changed or added while Windows was running, the new monitor may not
be detected by the software.
1
Solution
Restart your computer. If your monitor is a Plug-and-Play monitor, it should be
automatically detected by the software.
Problem 3D and video programs don’t work
1
Cause
Your computer may not have given an IRQ (interrupt request) to your Matrox graphics card
or may have given one used by another device in your computer. This may be because your
computer’s “Plug-and-Play” feature is turned off.

Solution
Change settings in your computer BIOS setup utility.
If your computer has the options of enabling Plug-and-Play detection, or assigning an IRQ
to a VGA adapter, make sure they’re enabled. If your computer doesn’t have these options,
you may be able to manually assign an IRQ to your Matrox card using the BIOS setup utility.
For more information on the BIOS setup utility of your computer, see your system manual
or contact your system manufacturer.
WARNING: If incorrect software monitor settings are used, your display may become
unusable and some monitors can be permanently damaged. For more information, see
your monitor manual.
