You can install the drivers from the CD included with the monitor before connecting the notebook to the monitor or you can install the drivers from the monitor's internal flash drive after connecting the notebook to the monitor. To install the drivers from the monitor's internal flash drive: 1. Turn on power to the monitor and the HP notebook computer. 2. Connect one end of the provided USB cable to a USB connector on the notebook computer, and the other end to the upstream USB connector on the monitor.
