Plug & Play
For Windows® 95 users
Plug and Play is Microsoft®'s method of providing automatic peripheral
connections in Windows 95.
Because your new monitor features the VESA® (Video Electronics Standards
Association) DDC (Display Data Channel) standard, the monitor's
resolutions are simple to adjust when used with a DDC compatible video
card in the Plug and Play environment.
DDC is a protocol which allows the monitor to communicate with the video
card, so the resolutions can be changed in the Display's Settings section
found in the Windows 95 Control Panel.
To use Plug and Play:
Install the information file (.inf file) for this monitor. The installation
program, titled Install.exe is on the disk or the CD ROM included with the
monitor.
To install the program from the OptiGreen disk:
1. With your computer on, insert the disk into the computer's disk
drive.
2. Click the Windows 95 Start menu button.
3. Select Run.
4. Type in A:\install.exe if your disk drive is A.
Type in B:\install.exe if your disk drive is B.
5. Click OK and follow the instructions.
6. Restart your computer for the installation to take effect.
To install the program from the ViewSonic Display Suite™ CD :
1. With your computer on, insert the CD into the CD ROM drive.
2. Wait for the CD to automatically start.
3. Select Windows 95 Plug & Play.
4. Select Install.
5. Restart your computer for the installation to take effect.
Note
Some older computer systems are not compatible with the DDC standard. If your
monitor is displaying a monochrome image or the wrong resolution, call
ViewSonic’s customer support for a non-DDC adapter. If you upgrade to a DDC
compatible system later and want to use Plug & Play, just remove the adapter.
