Adjusting the color depth and screen area ar e two of t he most basic display se tting s you ma y need
to change. You can also adjust settings such as the screen background and screen saver.
Changing color dept h and sc reen re solution
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 “jump y,” espec iall y af ter you have play ed a game or run a video-intensi v e
program, check the color depth setting and return it to the highest color setting, if necessary.
Screen resol uti on is the number of pixels (individual colored dots) your computer uses to display
images on your monitor. The higher the resolution, the more inf or mati on and screen components
(such as icons and menu bars) can be displayed on your monitor.

P ower man agement
Energy declar ation
When connected to a computer that supports the VESA Display Power Management Signaling
(DPMS) Protocol, your monitor can conserve significant energy by reducing power consumption
during periods of non-use. When your computer goes into the energy saving mode, your monitor
will then enter the Active Off mode (sleep) . In the ActiveOff mode the Power LED will still show
orange.
Use these conventions and the power can be reduced to the following levels:
VESA St ate LED Indicator Power Consumption
On Blue <20 W
Standby Orange <2 W
Off Off <1 W
To “wake” your monitor when it is in Stand by/Active Off mode, move the mouse or press any
keyb oa rd key.
Y ou can c hange y our monit or’ s po wer management settings using the Windows C ontrol Panel. For
more information, see your computer’s User Gu ide.
Maintaining
To keep your monitor in optimal working order:
• Do not block the ventilation holes.
• Do not expose your monitor to rain or use near water.
• Keep your monitor away from radiators or heat vents.
• Keep your monitor out of direct sunlight.
Caution
Do not use any type of abrasive pad or glass cleaner. You will permanently
scratch the screen.
• T o c l ean your monitor, use a soft cloth slightly moistened with water only. Wipe the cabinet,
screen, and controls.
Troubleshooting
Important
Make sure that your monitor has warmed up for approximately 30 minutes before
making any judgments about the picture quality.
If you have problems with your monitor, the information in this troubleshooting section may help
you solve them.

• Make sure that your monitor is turned on.
• If you have the monitor connected to your notebook’s video port, you have two options:
• If your notebook supports dual displays, you can use both your notebook’s display and
this monitor in extended desktop multi-monitor mode. See Windows Help to learn how
to enable multiple monitors.
• You can also use this monitor as your primary monitor and not use the notebook’s
screen. Notebook computers typically have an F
between your notebook’s display, an externally attached display, and both at the same
time. See your notebook’s user guide for more information.

Using Your Gateway Flat-Pan el Monitor
Color is not unif or m
• Press the Menu button, then press the Auto button to automatically adjust the display image
to the id ea l sett in gs .
• Make sure that your monitor warms up for at least 30minutes before making a final
judgment about color uniformity or brightness.
Image is not siz ed or cent ered correc tly
• Press the Menu button, then press the Auto button to automatically adjust the display image
to the id ea l sett in gs .
• Use the position controls to adjust the image. For instructions on how to adjust the display

• If the image looks stret che d or fuzzy , you mu st adjust the oper ating sy st em’ s displa y se ttings
to match the m oni tor ’s op tim al ( native) 1440 × 900 setting. For information on adjusting
settings, see “Changing Windows screen settings” on page9.
• If you are trying to select 1440 × 900 but it is not available in the Windows display
controlpanel:
• Make sure that your video card can display at 1440× 900 resolution.
• This may be caused by older video drivers on your computer. See the Gateway support
Web site (www.gateway.com) for updated video driv ers f or y our computer. Y ou can als o
go directly to your video card’s support Web site for the most up-to-d ate video drivers.
The Web sites for the major video card manufacturers are:

ATI
: www.ati.com
Intel®: www.intel.com
Nvidia®: www.nvidia.com
• If your games do not have support for widescreen displays:
• 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.
.
Y our monitor has pixels that are alwa ys dark or too bright
• This condition is normal and inherent in the TFT technology used in active-matrix LCD
screens. Gateway’s inspection standards keep these to a minimum. If you feel these pixels
are unacceptably numerous or dense on your display, contact Gateway Customer Care to
identify whether a repair or replacement is justified based on the number of pixels affected.
Connec ting a game consol e
• If you want to connect your game console to this monit or , use optional video cables (avai lable
at www.gateway.com if ordering from the United States). To determine the type of cable
you need, see your gaming console’s documentation.
