Using the VGA Utilities
Your computer has a Video Graphics Array (VGA) adapter
built into the main system board which is 100% compatible
with the IBM VGA. This allows you to use the computer with
all Epson VGA monitors, other brands of VGA monitors, and
VGA compatible, multi-frequency monitors that use analog
input. The internal VGA support is based on the Chips and
Technologies® 82C452 Super VGA controller.
In addition to its VGA support, the controller offers a large set
of extended functions and higher resolutions, which you can use
if your computer is attached to a multi-frequency monitor
capable of displaying these resolutions.
The Epson VGA
monitor uses standard VGA modes and does
not require installation of any software drivers to operate
properly. You need to install these software drivers and utilities
only if you want to use extended graphics modes on a high-
resolution, multi-frequency monitor.
Note
These utilities ate intended for use only with the computer’s
built-in VGA adapter. If you have installed a video card in
one of the computer's option slots, use the documentation
and software that came with that video card. For further
information on using the computer with a video card, see
“Using a Display Adapter Card" in Chapter 1 of this manual.
