Installing your graphics hardware
This section describes how to install your Matrox card. For information specific to your computer, like how to remove its cover, see your system manual.
Note: Most Matrox low-profile graphics cards ship with ATX brackets compatible with most systems. If you have a low-profile system, you may need to change the ATX bracket on your graphics card to a low-profile bracket. For more information,
“Replacing brackets on your graphics card”, page 10 .
Before you begin
To avoid personal injury and to prevent damage to your computer or Matrox hardware, read the following guidelines before installing your Matrox graphics hardware.
Preventing damage to your graphics hardware
Always turn off your computer, unplug it, then wait for it to cool before touching any of the internal parts of your computer or installing your Matrox product.
While your computer is turned off but still plugged in, some electrical current is supplied to the motherboard. This current may prevent newly installed hardware from working properly.
Static electricity can severely damage electronic parts. Before touching any electronic parts, drain static electricity from your body (for example, by touching the metal frame of your computer).
When handling a card, carefully hold it by its edges and avoid touching its circuitry.
Always try to insert or remove your card as straight as possible.

Note: If your Matrox product was provided by the manufacturer of your computer, check the 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.

see page 38 ) and describe the problem. This
information may help us come up with a fix or work-around in a future driver release.
Problem Program window or dialog box doesn’t appear on screen
1 Cause Another window or dialog box may be covering the window or dialog box you want to see.
1 Solution Move, close, or minimize any window or dialog box that may be covering the window or dialog box you want to see.
2 Cause If you’re using multi-display mode, the program window or dialog box may be in a display or on a monitor that’s unusable. (For example, your monitor may not be properly connected or configured.)
1 Solution Make sure all the displays and monitors you want to use are usable. For more information, see other troubleshooting items in this guide.
3 Cause The software may be using a display you didn’t intend to use or the software may be configured to use more displays than the actual number of monitors you have.
1 Solution Disable the display:
Windows 8/7/Vista/XP –
1
From the main interface of PowerDesk ( see “Accessing PowerDesk”, page 22 ), click

4 Cause The program window or dialog box may be somewhere off-screen.
1 Solution If the program window you want to see is named on the Windows taskbar, right-click on it and select Maximize . (If you click Restore the program window goes back to its previous position. To fix this problem, see the other solutions.)

3 Press on one of the arrow keys once and move your mouse pointer to where you want the window or dialog box to appear, then click. The program window or dialog box should appear where you clicked.
Problem Display on digital monitor appears blurry or uses only a portion of the screen
1 Cause You may be using a lower display resolution than what your digital monitor supports. If your monitor supports display scaling, the image on your screen may appear blurry. If display scaling isn’t supported, the display may use only a portion of your screen.
1 Solution Select the highest display resolution available. This generally results in better image quality.
Problem Can’t apply Windows Aero color scheme (Windows 7 only)
1 Cause You may be using a display driver designed for Windows XP (XDDM).
1 Solution Windows Aero is supported only with a display driver designed for Windows Vista
(WDDM). For more information, see “Selecting the proper display driver”, page 20 .
2 Cause You may be using a 16-bit color palette.
1 Solution Try using a 32-bit color palette instead.
Problem Video file playback is jerky (skipping frames)
Note: Jerky video file playback may be the result of slow playback or recording. Slow recording causes frames to be dropped (frames aren’t recorded). If jerky video is caused by frames that were dropped during recording or by the video settings such as the encoding method, the problem can only be fixed by recapturing the video under better conditions or with different video settings.
32 Matrox M-Series – User Guide
1 Cause Your hard disk may be too slow.
1 Solution If possible, try using a faster disk.
Tip: If your computer has more than one hard disk, you may get better results if you play back video files from a disk other than the one where the Windows swap file is stored. The
Windows swap file is usually stored on drive “C:”.
2 Cause Your video player may not properly support the video file format.
1 Solution Try using a different video player.
Problem Mouse pointer flickers or disappears when it’s over a video window
1 Cause You may be using a customized mouse pointer. Windows draws customized mouse pointers in a way that may cause them to flicker or disappear while they’re over a video window.

Æ Mouse (double-click*). (* Depending on your version and configuration of Windows, this part of the step may not be necessary.)

Problem Can’t play certain videos
1 Cause The video source may be copy protected.

2 Cause A DVD video may not play back because the region setting on your DVD player doesn’t match the region code on the DVD-ROM disc. DVD players and videos use region codes to prevent the playback of video that was intended only for a certain region or market.
1 Solution To get a copy of a DVD video that’s compatible with the region code of your DVD player, contact the vendor of that video.
Matrox M-Series – User Guide 33
Problem Can’t record video
