My monitor does not start up with my

 

stand alone desktop PC. I cannot see

 

anything with Desktop PC.

designed to work with DOS yet. It

display images only after the Windows

USB ports, it does not require any

 

adjustments at all. It is fully plug and play.

I cannot find power on off button on

 

the montior.

Ans.:

You do not require any power button

 

as there is no direct power connection

 

for the monitor. Once you shut off your

 

laptop, or remove the USB connectors,

 

the monitor will turn off completely.

Do I need to use USB 2.0 or USB 3.0

 

ports?

You can use both technologies from

 

the PC side. The monitor has USB 2.0
