It is currently tested as compatible for Windows 8, Windows 7, and Windows Vista Operating System (OS). The BenQ LCD Monitor driver for your model may well function perfectly with other versions of Windows, however, as at the time of writing, BenQ has done no testing of this driver on other versions of Windows and cannot guarantee its operation on those systems. Installing monitor driver software involves selecting an appropriate information file (. inf) on the BenQ LCD Monitor CD-ROM for the particular model monitor you have connected, and letting Windows install the corresponding driver files from the CD. Windows has an Upgrade Device Driver Wizard to automate the task and guide you through the file selection and installation process. See: • How to install on Windows 8 system (selected models only) on page 18 • How to install on Windows 7 system on page 19. • How to install on Windows Vista systems on page 20.

How to adjust your monitor 23 Picture optimization The easiest way to obtain an optimal display from an analog (D-Sub) input is to use the Auto Adjustment function. Go to Display and Auto Adjustment to optimize the currently displayed image to the screen. When you connect a digital input signal using a digital (DVI or HDMI) cable to your monitor, the Auto Adjustment function will be disabled, because the monitor will automatically display the best image. Please ensure that the connected graphic card on your computer is set to the native resolution of the monitor when you use the Auto Adjustment function. If you wish, you can always adjust the screen geometric settings manually using geometry menu items. To assist you in this endeavour, BenQ has provided a screen test image utility which you can use to check for screen color, grayscale and line gradient display. [. . . ] Read the instructions on the link "Adjusting the Screen Resolution" on the CD, and then select the correct resolution, refresh rate and make adjustments based on these instructions. If not, optimize the image by working through the instructions in the "Adjusting the refresh rate" section on the link "Adjusting the Screen Resolution". It is normal for blurring to occur due to conduction losses in extension cables. You can minimize these losses by using an extension cable with better conduction quality or with a built-in booster.
