I am mac - ignorant. I'm on PC and I recently hooked up a nice big mac monitor. I don't know what model it is, but its only a couple years old, its big, it weighs a ton, it is not a flat panel - its gigantic and it has a nice pretty blue plastic shell. So, I hook it up to my PC and realize that I need to adjust the vertical, horizontal, etc... I was informed that macs come with software to control these settings. Is this also available for PC so that I can download it and make the adjustments?
Thank you so much, NT peeps. And please excuse my mac challenged demeanor.

if it is one of these
no problem. there are on screen controls on the front bottom for manipulation of the vertical/horizontal pins etc

Yes, that is the monitor, but I only find brightness/contrast buttons... that's all. ?

there should be more options that that. there should be a menu button. then an on screen prompt will prompt you to do morei think the menu one is on the left

not to make you worried or something but i hope you can enjoy that monitor for a long time cause i saw four of them die about half a year ago. Four of them in about two weeks time.
Like it was preprogrammed or something.
It starts with a twitching screen and ets worse till unstandable.

Yikes! Hope that doesn't happen here. Anyway, there is a push button on the left front, but it just looks at me when I press it. Again, I think I need some kind of software to get to these display settings. I'm hoping that it will be compatible with a pc.

shouldnt need any software.
do you see an on screen prompt for anything else than brightness & contrast like icons?
