Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
The image is blurred.
Read the instructions on the link Adjusting the Screen Resolution on the CD, and then 
select the correct resolution, refresh rate and make adjustments based on these instructions.
How do you use a VGA extension cable?
Remove the extension cable for the test. Is the image now in focus? If not, optimize the image 
by working through the instructions in the 
Adjusting the refresh rate section on the link 
Adjusting the Screen Resolution. It is normal for blurring to occur due to conduction 
losses in extension cables. You can minimize these losses by using an extension cable with 
better conduction quality or with a built-in booster.
Does the blurring only occur at resolutions lower than the native (maximum) resolution?
Read the instructions on the link Adjusting the Screen Resolution on the CD. Select the 
native resolution.
