Changing Windows screen settings

Adjusting the color depth and screen area are two of the most basic display settings you may need

to change. You can also adjust settings such as the screen background and screen saver.

Changing color depth and screen resolution

Color depth is the number of colors your computer uses to display images on your monitor. Most

images look best displayed with the maximum number of colors available. If the color in your

images seems “false” or “jumpy,” especially after you have played a game or run a video-intensive

program, check the color depth setting and return it to the highest color setting, if necessary.

Screen resolution is the number of pixels (individual colored dots) your computer uses to display

images on your monitor. The higher the resolution, the more information and screen components

(such as icons and menu bars) can be displayed on the monitor.

To change the color depth or screen resolution in WindowsVista®:

1Click (Start), Control Panel, then under Appearance and Personalization, click Adjust

Screen Resolution. The Display Settings dialog box opens.

2To change the color depth, click the Colors list, then click the color depth you want.

•Low (8-bit) = 256 colors

•Medium (16-bit) = 65,500 colors

•Highest (24-bit) = 16,700,000 colors

3To change the screen resolution, drag the Resolution slider to the size you prefer.

4Click Apply. If the new settings do not look right, click No. If the new settings make the screen

illegible and you cannot click No, the settings return to their previous values after several

seconds.

5Click OK, then click Yes to save your changes.

To change the color depth or screen resolution in Windows XP:

1Click Start, then click Control Panel. The Control Panel opens. If your Control Panel is in

Category View, click Appearance and Themes.

2Click Display. The Display Properties dialog box opens.

3Click the Settings tab.

4To change the color depth, click the arrow button to open the Color quality list, then click

the color depth you want.

Color quality settings:

•Low (8-bit) = 256 colors

•Medium (16-bit) = 65,500 colors

•Highest (32-bit) = 16,700,000 colors

5To change the screen resolution, drag the Screen resolution slider to the size you prefer.

The optimum resolution for your display is 2560 × 1600.

Power management

Energy declaration

When connected to a computer that supports the VESA Display Power Management Signaling

(DPMS) Protocol, the monitor can conserve significant energy by reducing power consumption

during periods of non-use. When your computer goes into the energy saving mode, the monitor

will then enter the ActiveOff mode (sleep). In the Active Off mode the Power LED will still show

orange.

Use these conventions and the power can be reduced to the following levels:

To “wake” the monitor when it is in Standby/Active Off mode, move the mouse or press any

keyboard key.

You can change the monitor’s power management settings using the Windows Control Panel. For

more information, see your computer’s User Guide.

•You must adjust the operating system’s display settings to match the monitor’s optimal

(native) 1680 × 1050 setting. For information on adjusting settings in Windows, see

“Changing color depth and screen resolution” on page 10.

You do not see 1680 × 1050 available in the Windows display control panel.

•Make sure that your video card can display at 1680 × 1050 resolution.

•This may be caused by older video drivers on your computer. See the Gateway support Web

site (www.gateway.com) for updated video drivers for your computer. You can also go

directly to your video card’s support Web site for the most up-to-date video drivers. The Web

sites for the major video card manufacturers are:

•Newer games are adding support for widescreen displays as the widescreen format becomes

more popular. Check the game’s Web site for updates. You can also consult the following

Web site for specific settings and options to configure older games to support widescreen:

www.widescreengamingforum.com.

Some adjustments may require you to make changes to the Windows System Registry. We

recommend making a complete system backup before changing the System Registry.

When you display video from a component video source, the video looks overly compressed.

•See your video device’s user manual to adjust the video or TV format output to 16:9. Setting

this option to 4:3 results in compressed video. This is done differently on all brands of video

devices, so it is important that you read your video device’s user guide or the help tools

within your video device’s software.

You see black bars on left and right of the video.

•Touch Menu, Video Adjust, then touch Video Scaling. To fill more of the screen,

choose Wide, Zoom, 1:1 (normal), or Panoramic modes.

When you try to use Picture in Picture (PIP) component video at 480p, 720p, or 1080i, either

no video is displayed or you see corrupted video.

•This is a normal operation of the monitor. If you want to view component video in PIP, adjust

the video output of your external device to 480i.

You need to know whether you can connect the HDMI output of your external video device

to the DVI port of the monitor.

•Yes, you can. When using the digital connection, your video content remains completely

digital from your external video device (such as a cable box, HD DVR, or DVD player). This

results in a superior digital image. Also, in this configuration the PIP can support the input

of all HD resolutions.

Gaming

You need to know whether you can connect your game console to this monitor.

•Yes, you can, if your game console supports HDMI or component video. Using optional video

cables, you can connect your game console directly to the monitor. If your game console

supports Component (YPbPr), this results in the best picture quality.

Speaker bar does not work

I installed the speaker bar, but no sound is coming out of the speakers.

•Make sure that the speaker bar power cord is plugged into the speaker bar power connector

under your monitor.

•Check the position of the audio input selection switch on the left side of the speaker bar.

•If you are using HDMI as the audio and video source, make sure that the HDMI cable is

connected to the HDMI output on the monitor. Also make sure that your HDMI audio source

is set to PCM or Analog audio.

I checked all the connections, but I still do not get any sound.

•Your headphone/speaker jack may have been muted using Windows sound controls. To

check your headphone/speaker mute settings, click the speaker icon in the Windows taskbar,

or click (Start), Control Panel, Sounds and Audio Devices, the Volume tab, then click

Advanced. For optimum volume control using the speaker bar, we recommend that you

set the Windows volume mid-way between the lowest and highest setting.

I want to plug in my headphones, but there is a headphone jack on both sides of the speaker

bar. Which should I use?

•You can use either jack or both jacks at the same time.

The sound coming from the speakers sounds distorted.

•Turn down the volume until the distortion disappears.

•Check the audio output volume of the sound device the speaker bar is connected to. If the

audio device’s output volume is set too high, the speaker bar’s sound may always be

distorted. To adjust the audio device’s output volume, see the device’s user guide. To adjust

the volume in Windows XP, click the speaker icon in the Windows taskbar, or click (Start),

Control Panel, Sounds and Audio Devices, the Volume tab, then click Advanced. For

optimum volume control using the speaker bar, we recommend that you set the Windows

volume mid-way between the lowest and highest setting.

I plugged my microphone into the speaker bar’s microphone jack, but my computer cannot

record any sound.

•Make sure that the speaker bar’s pink microphone plug is connected to the microphone jack

on your computer.

•Your microphone jack may have been muted using Windows sound controls. To check your

microphone’s mute settings, click the speaker icon in the Windows taskbar, or click (Start),

Control Panel, Sounds and Audio Devices, the Volume tab, then click Advanced.

Important

Although the HDMI interface supports audio, no audio is sent to the monitor. You must

separately connect the audio output of your video device to an external audio amplifier.

HDCP

What is HDCP and how should you troubleshoot it?

High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) is a specification developed by the Intel®

Corporation to protect digital entertainment content that uses a digital visual interface (DVI).

HDCP encrypts the transmission of digital content (signal) between the video source (computer,

DVD player, or set-top box) and the digital display (monitor, digital television/DTV, or projector).

HDCP is not designed to prevent copying or recording of digital content, but only to protect the

integrity of the content as transmitted.

You see “noise” or “trash” on the screen.

•When your display’s digital capabilities exceed a digital broadcast signal, the signal is

increased (up-converted) to match the display capabilities. Up-converting can cause “noise”

or “trash.” The signal on DVI-D is HDCP encoded. Stop and restart the source to allow

renegotiation.

How HDCP works.

•Implementation of HDCP requires a license obtainable from the Digital Content Protection,

LLC, which then issues a set of unique secret device keys to all authorized devices. During

authentication, the receiving device only accepts content after it acknowledges the keys. To

further prevent stealing of the data or line tapping, the transmitter and receiver generate

a shared secret value that is constantly checked throughout the transmission. After

authentication is established, the transmitter encrypts the data and sends it to the receiver

for decryption.

You lose the signal to the display while watching a movie on a HDCP-equipped component.

•The component must be restarted to establish renegotiation.

For example, while watching a movie on a HDCP-enabled DVD player, you change the

receiving device (DTV, monitor, or projector) input to watch broadcast TV, then change the

input back to watch the DVD movie. However, you are unable to watch the movie. This is

because when the input was changed, the receiver lost the HDCP signal. Restart the

HDCP-enabled DVD player to allow renegotiation.

A movie starts, but then slowly fades to static.

•The receiving device is not HDCP compatible or it is not negotiating correctly. Restart the

video source and re-plug all video cables from the source to the TV.

How to determine whether a component is HDCP compliant.

•If the video source device does not have a DVI or HDMI connection, it is not HDCP compliant.

DCDi by Faroudja

What is DCDi by Faroudja?

DCDi® by Faroudja is a video mode algorithm that stands for Directional Correlation De-Interlacing.

It was initially designed for fast-action video-based material. Its general purpose is to reduce

jagged edges along diagonal lines caused by interpolation. Utilizing this algorithm, DCDi does not

simply weave together two fields of video that match. DCDi creates new information through

interpolation which “smooths” the diagonal edges. DCDi constantly monitors edge transitions and

fills in any of the gaps that need smoothing.
