Installing setup information on Windows-based computers
On Windows-based computers, a new device is usually detected automatically when it is
connected to your computer. To determine that Windows has correctly identified your
monitor, check Monitor Type in the Display Properties dialog box. If the Apple Multiple Scan
720 Display is not listed, you need to install setup information; otherwise, some resolutions
and refresh rates may not be available on your monitor.
To see whether Windows has identified your monitor, follow these steps:
1 Open the Start menu and choose Settings.
2 Open the Control Panel and double-click the Display icon.
The Display Properties dialog box appears.
3 Click the Settings tab at the top of the dialog box.
The Settings panel appears.
4 Click the Change Display Type button in the lower-right corner to display the current
Monitor Type.
If the Monitor Type shown is the Apple Multiple Scan 720, your computer has correctly
identified your monitor. You are ready to use your Apple Multiple Scan 720 Display with
your computer.
If the Monitor Type shown is not the Apple Multiple Scan 720, continue with step 5.
