Setting LCD/plasma screen resolution

Under 4.3.b there is an important point to note on Screen Resolution which was not explained. This is deliberately set to 1280x1024. Whilst this goes against principle of reducing video traffic (as lower resolutions are better), its set to work best with LCD or plasma.

All LCDs & plasmas have a native (or default) resolution. Latest model LCDs is 1280x1024. Plasmas will differ. Windows Screen Resolution must match this native resolution. If your LCD panel has a different native resolution than change Windows to this native resolution, e.g. 1024x768 or 1280x768. Recyle power on computer (reboot is not enough) for change to effect LCD/Plasma.

Why? Both LCDs and Plasmas put back noise into your AC circuit which can be audible in a high resolution system. The most offending piece inside these monitors is the Display Processor. It detects input resolution and scales it to native resolution. This is a video DSP chip. Display Processor is bypassed by setting your computer to the native resolution.
