Standard VGA monitors display resolutions up to 640 x 480, and
you do not need to install any drivers for an external monitor to
operate properly with your application programs at this
resolution. However, the display drivers provide resolutions up to
800 x 600 in 16 colors for Windows applications.
To obtain drivers for other applications, call the Epson Connection.
Note
These drivers and utilities are designed for systems running
MS-DOS. If you are using another operating system, see the
documentation that came with it for information about the
VGA drivers you can use.
If you are displaying data simultaneously on both the LCD and an
external monitor, the screens will default to a resolution of 640 x
480 regardless of what drivers are loaded. (This is because the LCD
supports 640 x 480 only,) To display in a resolution of 800x 600,
make sure you are displaying on the external monitor only.
You can control where data is displayed using the VGACONF
utility described later in this chapter.
Microsoft Windows, Version 3.1
