The actual screens on your PC will probably be different, depending upon your particular version of Windows and your particular video card. However, even if your actual screens look different, the same basic setup information will apply in almost all cases. (If not, contact your computer manufacturer or Samsung Dealer.) First, click on "Settings" on the Windows start menu. While "Settings" is highlighted, move the cursor so that "control panel" is highlighted. When the control panel screen appears, click on "Display" and a display dialog-box will appear. Navigate to the "Settings" tab on the display dialog box. The two key variables that apply to the TV-PC interface are "resolution" and "colors". The correct settings for these two variables are: * Screen area (sometimes called "resolution"): 1024 x 768 pixels * Colors: "24-bit" color (might also be expressed as "16 million colors"). If a vertical-frequency option exists on your display settings dialog box, the correct value is "60" or "60 Hz". Otherwise, just click "OK" and exit the dialog box. continued... 81
