3M™ MicroTouch™ Display C1500SS Installation Guide

Using the Standard Controls for the Video Card

In addition to the standard controls on the display, each video card has several controls that let you adjust the display settings. The software and driver for each video card is unique. In most cases, you adjust these settings by using a program or utility provided by the manufacturer of the video card.

For example, you can use the Windows Display Properties control panel to adjust the desktop area (resolution), color depth, and refresh rate. Whenever you change these settings, the image size, position, or shape may change. This behavior is normal. You can readjust the image using the display controls described in this chapter.

For more information on adjusting the desktop area (resolution), color depth, or refresh rate, refer to the user manual that came with your video card.
