Universal Driver Manager

This monitor may require a graphics driver (and/or .INF file) that

is compatible with your computer’s graphics adapter. The CD-

ROM included with this monitor contains an .INF file (see the

section on Information Files). Compaq has also created a

Universal Driver Manager (UDM) release that supports all

graphics adapters found on Compaq Deskpro and Compaq

Workstation products. The UDM eases graphics driver

deployment across Compaq platforms ensuring cross-

compatibility and backward-compatibility. The resulting solution

enables customers to manage and control ongoing software

maintenance costs. The UDM is available on the Compaq Support

Software CD for Compaq Desktop, Portable, and Workstation

Products and the Compaq World Wide Web site

(www.compaq.com).

Information Files

This monitor includes a CD-ROM with two information files to

be installed onto your computer—an .INF file and an .ICM file.

■ The .INF file defines monitor resources and provides

specifications used by most operating systems to install

support software for certain hardware devices. The .INF file

ensures monitor compatibility and optimization with your

computer’s graphics adapter.

■ The .ICM file provides color matching consistency from

monitor screen to printer and is activated from within the

graphics programs that have this feature.

To install these files on your computer, follow the instructions on

the CD-ROM or on the "Configuring Your Compaq LCD

Monitor" card located in the Program License Agreement packet

along with the CD-ROM. INF file updates are downloadable by

clicking on: www.compaq.com/products/monitors/index.html
