Information Files

The CD-ROM included with this monitor contains two data files that must be installed onto your computer: an .INF file and an .ICM file.

The .INF file designates software and defines monitor resources used by Microsoft Windows to ensure monitor compatibility with the graphics adapter in your computer.

The .ICM file provides color matching consistency between your monitor screen and your printer. Once installed, this file is activated by graphics programs that have this color-matching feature.

To install these files on your computer:

1.Insert the Software and Reference Guide CD-ROM in your computer's optical drive.

2.When the CD-ROM menu launches, select Install INF and ICM Files.

3.To get the latest .INF and .ICM files, download them from the Compaq Web site. Access http://www.compaq.com/support/files/monitors/index.html and select your monitor model to download the appropriate files.
