No need for specific drivers

The monitor complies with the “DDC” Plug & Play standard and automatically detects all the monitor’s information. No specific driver needs to be installed to the computer.

The first time you turn on your computer after connecting the monitor, the setup Wizard may appear on the screen. If this is the case, follow the on- screen instructions. The Plug & Play monitor is automatically selected so that you can use this monitor.

The vertical frequency turns to 60 Hz.

Since flickers are unobtrusive on the monitor, you can use it as is. You do not need to set the vertical frequency to any particular high value.
