Information Files
The CD-ROM included with this monitor contains two information files that should be installed onto your computer—an .INF file and an .ICM file. The .INF file defines monitor resources and provides specifications used by Microsoft Windows 95 and Windows 98 to install support software for certain hardware devices. The .INF file ensures monitor compatibility and optimization with your computer’s graphics adapter. The .ICM file provides color matching consistency from monitor screen to printer and is activated from within the graphics programs that have this feature. To install these files on your computer, insert the Compaq CD-ROM into your computer's CD drive and select the software from the menu that displays on your monitor screen. INF file updates are downloadable by clicking on: www.compaq.com/products/monitors/index.html
