out the usual hassles and confusion. Your PC system can easily identify and configure itself
for use with your display. This monitor automatically tells the PC system its Extended Display
Identification Data (EDID) using Display Data Channel (DDC) protocols so the PC system can
automatically configure itself to use the flat panel display. If your PC system needs a video
driver, follow the instructions given below according to the operating system your computer
uses.
