We have a tip for you at this point: A few minutes' patience will pay for themselves. Take
a few moments' time to optimize your system settings. Your eyes will thank you for it

쮿What color depth should I use?
쮿How frequently should the monitor redraw itself?
This chapter is divided up into operating systems to allow us to answer these questions
for you as simply as possible. Turn straight to the heading for your operating system. You
will find everything you need there. The software you need will be on the WINNERware
CD – unless it is already included in the operating system.
