About Monitor Firmware:

If you wish to update the monitor firmware version, know that this step can translate into improved overall performance, stability and compatibility, the inclusion of fixes for various issues encountered during the product’s lifetime, enhanced features or added support for new ones.

To perform this task, it would be best if you first read carefully and understand the installation steps necessary to successfully apply a new firmware version. If an update failure occurs, the monitor software can suffer serious malfunctions.

We recommend that any firmware upgrade be performed by a power user and only when the new version brings changes that you can make full use of. Also, after completing the update, do reboot the system to allow all changes to take effect.

In addition to that, make sure you apply the new version in a steady power environment such as the one ensured by a UPS unit, so that no power disruption affects the installation.

That being said, if you intend to update the monitor to this firmware version, click the download buttons and read the update instructions. Otherwise, check with our website as often as possible so that you don’t miss the release that your monitor needs. 

  It is highly recommended to always use the most recent driver version available.

Try to set a system restore point before installing a device driver. This will help if you installed an incorrect or mismatched driver. Problems can arise when your hardware device is too old or not supported any longer.
