Before you begin

Web site of that manufacturer for the latest display driver. A display driver provided by
the manufacturer of your computer is more likely to be tested with your computer
model.
 You may need administrator rights to install or uninstall certain software. For more
information, see Windows documentation or contact your system administrator.
Obtaining a display driver
 Matrox makes the latest display drivers available on the Matrox Technical Support Web
site (www.matrox.com/graphics/en/support/drivers
).
Hardware detection
 Windows 10/8.1 – Windows detects new hardware when you restart and installs a
Microsoft Basic Display Adaptor driver.

VGA driver.
