Display Controller Appendix B Display Controller Display controller The display controller interprets software commands into hardware commands that turn particular pixels on or off. A high-resolution external monitor connected to the computer can display up to 1400 horizontal and 1050 vertical pixels at up to 16M colors. The display controller also controls the video mode, which uses industry standard rules to govern the screen resolution and the maximum number of colors that can be displayed on screen. Software written for a given video mode will run on any computer that supports the mode. Some of display modes might not be supported depending on the external monitor which you use. If you are running some application (for example a 3D application or video playback and so on), you may use some disturbance, flickering or frame dropping on your screen. If that occurs,adjust the resolution of display, lowering it until the screen is displayed properly. User's Manual B-1
