Cannot Display This Video Mode
Optimum resolution 1280 x1024 60Hz
This means that the monitor cannot synchronize with the signal that it is receiving from the computer. Either the signal is too high or too low for the monitor to use. See Specifications for the Horizontal and Vertical frequency ranges addressable by this monitor. Recommended mode is 1280 X 1024 @ 60Hz.
NOTE: The floating 'Dell - self-test Feature Check' dialog will appear on-screen i f the monitor cannot sense a video signal.
Occasionally, no warning message appears, but the screen is blank. This could also indicate that the monitor is not synchronizing with the computer. See Troublesh ooting for more information.
