Monitor adjustment

To get the best view of your pictures, you should optimize your monitor display.
You can view the pictures on a monitor using 256 color and a 640 x 480 display
setting, but these settings will not give a true representation of the pictures.

To change the monitor display:

1

Double-click the My Computer icon.

2

Double-click the Control Panel icon.

3

Double-click the Display icon and click the Settings tab.

4

Make note of the settings for the Color Palette and Desktop areas.

5

From the Color Palette field, select the highest available setting {256, High
(16-bit), or True (24-bit or 32-bit) color} and click the Ok button.

6

From the Desktop Area, select 800 x 600 pixels.

Changing these values can cause your monitor display to be offset.
Consult the User’s Guide for your monitor for information on
repositioning the display.
If changing your settings makes your display unusable, shut down your
computer, reboot in the Safe mode, and reset the settings to those
recorded in step 4. To boot up in Safe mode, press the F5 key when
“Starting WINDOWS 95...” appears on the monitor.
