Identify Displays

If you have more than one display connected to your computer, you can identify and configure each display. The ATI Displays control panel identifies all the displays connected to your computer, but only configures displays that are connected to ATI cards.

If you are using multiple monitors and using one display with the built-in video, or a non-ATI video card, a generic video card icon is displayed in the ATI Displays control panel. However, you cannot make any changes to the generic video card using ATI Displays.
