General FAQs 
Q:
 When I install my monitor what should I do if the screen shows Cannot \
display this video 
mode?
A: Recommended video mode for Philips 42: 1360x768 @60Hz.
1.  Unplug all cables, then connect your PC to the monitor that you used 
previously.
2.  In the Windows Start Menu, select Settings/Control Panel. In the Control\
 Panel 
Window, select the Display icon. Inside the Display Control Panel, selec\
t the 
Settings tab. Under the setting tab, in box labeled desktop area, mo\
ve the 
slidebar to 1360x768 pixels (42).
3.  Open Advanced Properties and set the Refresh Rate to 60Hz, then click \
OK.
4.  Restart your computer and repeat step 2 and 3 to verify that your PC is \
set at 
1360x768@60Hz (42).
5.  Shut down your computer, disconnect your old monitor and reconnect your \
Philips LCD monitor.
6.  Turn on your monitor and then turn on your PC.
Q: What should I do when screen shows: THIS IS 85HZ OVERSCAN, CHANGE COMPU\
TER 
DISPLAY INPUT TO 1360 x 768 @60HZ?
A: It means the signal input from your PC is 85Hz -- outside the range tha\
t the 
monitor can display. New Generation LCD intelligent monitor capabilities\
 temporarily 
override the overscan, providing you with 10 minutes to reset timing to \
recommended 
settings.
Heres how:

FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)
Go to your Windows Start menu. Select Settings, then Control Panel. Select Display. 
Move to Settings and click on the Advanced button. Under Adaptor, change the 
refresh rate to 56~75.
You have 10 minutes to complete the operation; if you do not complete wi\
thin 10 
minutes, power off and re-power on monitor to enter changes.
Q: What does refresh rate mean in connection with an LCD monitor?
A: The refresh rate is of much less relevance for LCD monitors. LCD monitor\
s display 
a stable, flicker-free image at 60Hz. There is no visible difference bet\
ween 85Hz and 
60Hz.
Q: What are the .inf and .icm files on the CD-ROM? How do I install the dr\
ivers (.inf and .
icm)?
A: These are the driver files for your monitor. Follow the instructions in \
your user 
manual to install the drivers. Your computer may ask you for monitor dri\
vers (.inf and .
icm files) or a driver disk when you first install your monitor. Follow\
 the instructions to 
insert the ( companion CD-ROM) included in this package. Monitor drive\
rs (.inf and .
icm files) will be installed automatically.
Q: How do I adjust the resolution?
A: Your video card/graphic driver and monitor together determine the availa\
ble 
resolutions. You can select the desired resolution under Windows® Con\
trol Panel 
with the Display properties
.
Q: What if I get lost when I am making monitor adjustments?
A: Simply press the OK button, then select Reset to recall all of the or\
iginal factory 
settings.

FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)
Q: What is the Auto function?
A: The AUTO adjustment key restores the optimal screen position, phase and clock 
settings at the press of a single button – without the need to naviga\
te through OSD 
menus and control keys.
Note: Auto function is available in selected models only.
Q: My Monitor has no power (Power LED does not light up). What should I \
do?
A: Make sure the AC power cord is connected to the Monitor.
Q: Will the LCD monitor accept an interlaced signal under PC models?
A: No. If an Interlace signal is used, the screen displays both odd and ev\
en horizontal 
scanning lines at the same time, thus distorting the picture.
Q: What does the Refresh Rate mean for LCD?
A: Unlike CRT display technology, in which the speed of the electron beam \
is swept 
from the top to the bottom of the screen determines flicker, an active m\
atrix display 
uses an active element (TFT) to control each individual pixel and the \
refresh rate is 
therefore not really applicable to LCD technology. 
Q: Will the LCD screen be resistant to scratches?
A: A protective coating is applied to the surface of the LCD, which is dura\
ble to a 
certain extent (approximately up to the hardness of a 2H pencil). In g\
eneral, it is 
recommended that the panel surface is not subject to any excessive shock\
s or 
scratches. An optional protective cover with greater scratch resistance \
is also 
available.

FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)
Q: How should I clean the LCD surface?
A: For normal cleaning, use a clean, soft cloth. For extensive cleaning, p\
lease use 
isopropyl alcohol. Do not use other solvents such as ethyl alcohol, etha\
nol, acetone, 
hexane, etc.
 
Q: Can the Philips LCD Monitor be mounted on the wall or used as a touch p\
anel?
A: Yes. Philips LCD monitors have this optional feature. The standard VESA\
 mount 
holes on the back cover allows the user to mount the Philips monitor on \
any VESA 
standard ARM or accessories. Touch panels are being developed for future\
 
applications. Check with your Philips sales representative for more info\
rmation.
