•The monitor might be operating in a low-refresh rate display mode. Set the monitor to the highest, noninterlaced refresh rate supported by your monitor and the video controller in your computer.

Attention: Using a resolution or refresh rate that is not supported by your monitor might damage it. Check the documentation that comes with your monitor to verify the supported refresh rates.

2.Adjust the placement of the monitor and other devices so that they are at least 305 mm (12 inches) apart.

3.Turn on the monitor.

•You can reset the refresh rate through your operating system Control Panel:

On the Windows 7 operating system, click Start ➙ Control Panel ➙ Hardware and Sound ➙ Adjust screen resolution ➙ Advanced Settings. Then click the Monitor tab and select a new refresh rate.

On the Windows 8 operating system, open Control Panel and click Hardware and Sound ➙ Adjust screen resolution ➙ Advanced Settings. Then click the Monitor tab and select a new refresh rate.
