IBMT220 Flat-Panel Monitor (M/T 9503) –User’s Guide Supplement  
This is a supplement to the IBM T220 Flat-Panel Monitor User’s Guide (hereafter called the User’s Guide)  
and contains general information, limitations, and recommendations on the T220 Flat-Panel Monitor  
(hereafter called theT220 or monitor).  
General information  
1. The Matrox® G200 MMSvideo graphics card (hereafter called the Matrox card) that is bundled with  
the T220 has been specifically designed for this monitor. Use this card only. The Matrox cards on the  
retail market do not support T220.  
2. The display driver for the T220 in the Setup CD-ROM has been specifically coded for the T220. The  
version shipped with the T220 on the Setup CD-ROM is V5.60.006. Use this or a later version.  
To find out which version you have, open the Display Properties window, select Settings  
Advanced Information V5.60.006 Matrox driver package.  
To install the display driver, follow the instructions in the User’s Guide. If you don’t install the driver  
correctly, the Windows® desktop may not appear.  
3. The Matrox card’s BIOS, stored in the flash ROM of the card, is Version 3.3GC-34, specifically coded  
for T220. Use this or a later version only.  
To find out which version you have, open the Display Properties window, select Settings →  
Advanced Information 3.3–34 Graphics BIOS. (The Information panel does not show the  
complete designation of the BIOS version; it shows only 3.3-34.)  
If you need to upgrade the BIOS, download it from the above IBM Web site.  
Limitations  
When using the Windows multimonitor system  
1. The Windows desktop consists of four vertical partitions. You must set the Screen area and the  
Colors for each of these partitions in the Display Properties window. If any partition does not display  
or is out of sync, restart Windows 2000 in VGA mode and confirm the following  
v Screen area is set to 960 by 2400 pixels for all four partitions.  
v Colors are set to 24 bit for all four partitions.  
v Extend my Windows desktop onto this monitor is checked for all four partitions.  
v Use this device as the primary monitor is checked for the Primary Partition (the leftmost  
partition).  
2. The Windows task bar appears only in one partition, usually the Primary Partition.  
3. You can maximize a window only within a partition. Consequently applications such as Microsoft®  
PowerPoint® Slide Shows and LotusFreelanceScreen Shows are displayed only in the primary  
partition. To expand a window over the other three partitions, drag the window frame with the mouse  
from the primary partition to the other partitions.  
4. The borders between partitions may show on some applications that use motion video, such as the  
OpenGL screen saver.
