Q: Can I highlight two or more areas in the screen at the same time? A: No. Monitor hardware processes only a single rectangular area. Q: I get a message warning that my monitor 'may not support LightFrame™. I am certain my monitor does. What is wrong? A: Only a Philips driver can determine if your monitor is equipped with LightFrame™; a generic Windows driver cannot. Install the special Philips driver that came with your monitor.

A: You can use LightFrame™ with Netscape, but its functions are limited to manually highlighting the entire Netscape client window. Since LightFrame™ is specifically designed for bright, high contrast photo and video display, highlighting an entire Web page -- including text -- is not recommended. For best results, we recommend you use LightFrame™ with Microsoft Internet Explorer version 5.0 or higher. You can downloaded Internet Explorer free of charge from the Microsoft website (www.microsoft.com). A copy of Internet Explorer 5.5 is also included on the CD-ROM shipped with your monitor. Q: Will the highlighted area remain highlighted when I open a cached Web page stored locally on my computer? A: Yes. When a Web page is loaded in Internet Explorer, LightFrame™ scans the document for a photo or video and highlights suitable material. If LightFrame™ finds a photo or video in an online Web page, it will highlight the same object when the page is opened from a local cache. Q: On some Web pages, LightFrame™ activates automatically; on others, it doesn t. Why? A: Computers are smart, but you re smarter! When a Web page loads, LightFrame™ automatically seeks out photos or videos. Although the human eye has no problem picking out photos or videos on a busy Web page, some special backgrounds and borders confuse LightFrame™.
