Driver Installation Example: Monitor Driver
We’ll use the Monitor, which
is actually driven by the video card, as an example. The monitor purchased
for this PC build is a ViewSonic A70f+ 17" monitor.
Installing the proper monitor information
files is one of the small things that purchasing a fully assembled PC
will have done for you. Trying to drive a monitor at too high a refresh
rate is one of the very few things that you can mess up with software
that has the potential to destroy hardware.
We’ll start by opening the Control
Panel (Figure 152).
Figure 152: The control panel window Select “System” to get to Device Manager.
