4. Getting the most from your BenQ monitor To gain the most benefit from your new BenQ color LCD flat screen monitor, you should install the custom BenQ LCD Monitor driver software as provided on the BenQ website (http://www.benq.com/support). See Downloading the LCD Monitor driver files from the Internet on page 11 for details. The circumstances under which you connect and install your BenQ LCD Monitor will determine which process you need to follow to successfully install the BenQ LCD Monitor driver software. These circumstances relate to which version of Microsoft Windows you are using, and whether you are connecting the monitor and installing the software onto a new computer (without existing monitor driver software), or whether you are upgrading an existing installation (which already has existing monitor driver software) with a newer monitor. In either case however, the very next time you turn on your computer (after connecting the monitor to your computer), Windows will automatically recognize the new (or different) hardware, and will launch its Found New Hardware wizard. Follow the wizard instructions. Further details and step-by-step instructions for either an automatic (new) or upgrade (existing) installation, see: • How to install the monitor on a new computer on page 12. • How to upgrade the monitor on an existing computer on page 13. If you require a User Name and Password to login to your Windows computer, you must be logged on as an Administrator or as a member of the Administrators group in order to install the monitor driver software. Furthermore, if your computer is connected to a network which has security access requirements, network policy settings may prevent you from installing software on your computer. Downloading the LCD Monitor driver files from the Internet 1. Make sure your computer is connected to the Internet. 2. Visit BenQ website (http://www.benq.com/support). 3. Select the country/region you are located in to visit the specific support website. 4. Select LCD Monitor in Downloads. 5. Select your LCD Monitor model. 6.
