Bad picture
The image looks stretched or fuzzy when you connect the
monitor to your computer
You must adjust the operating system’s display settings
to match the monitor’s optimal (native) 2560 × 1600
setting (available only on systems using a dual-link DVI
cable attached to a dual-link DVI-capable video card).
VGA, HDMI, or a single-link DVI cable or video card have
a maximum resolution on this monitor of 1920 × 1200.
For information on adjusting settings in Windows, see
“Changing Windows screen settings” on page 38.
You do not see 2560 × 1600 available in the Windows
display control panel
Make sure that your video card can display at
2560 × 1600 resolution. If you have only a single-link DVI
cable or video card, the maximum resolution you can
display on this monitor is 1920 × 1200.
Make sure that you are using either the DVI cable that
came with your monitor or a third party cable that is
dual-link capable.
Some video cards that have two DVI ports support
dual-link on one of the DVI ports. Turn off your computer,
move the DVI cable to the alternate DVI port, then restart
your computer.
Important
To use the monitor’s full (highest) resolution (2560 × 1600), you must use
the included dual-link DVI cable to connect the monitor to a dual-link capable
video card on your computer.
A single-link DVI cable or video card limits resolution to 1920 × 1200.
VGA and HDMI connections are also limited to 1920 × 1200 resolution.
