The CD that is included with this monitor contains the drivers and software that you can install on your computer.

(select models only), or download them from the Internet.

2. Select the language.

3. Click Install Monitor Driver Software.

4. Follow the onscreen instructions.

5. Restart the computer.

Windows

operating system documentation for more information.

NOTE: You might need to install the digitally signed monitor drivers (INF or ICM files) manually from the CD, in case

of an installation error. Refer to the “Driver Software Readme” file on the CD for instructions (in English only).

Downloading Updated Drivers from the Internet

To download the latest version of drivers and software files from the HP Support site:

1. Refer to: http://www.hp.com/support

2. Select your country/region.

3. Select Download Drivers and Software.

4. Enter the model number of your monitor. The software-download pages for your monitor are displayed.

Using the Auto-Adjustment Function

You can easily optimize the screen performance for the VGA input by using the Auto/Select button on the monitor

and the auto-adjustment pattern software on the CD provided.

Do not use this procedure if your monitor is using a DVI or HDMI input (select models only). If your monitor is using

the VGA input, this procedure can correct the following image-quality conditions:

■ Fuzzy or unclear focus

■ Ghosting, streaking, or shadowing effects

■ Faint vertical bars

■ Thin, horizontal scrolling lines

■ Off-center picture
