Using a third-party graphics configuration utility
Third-party graphics cards may include a monitor configuration utility. Upon installation, this utility is
integrated into Windows. You can select the utility and use it to configure multiple monitors with your
workstation.
Refer to your graphics card documentation for details.
NOTE: Some third-party configuration utilities require that you enable the monitors in Windows before
using the configuration tool. Refer to your graphics card documentation for more information.
NOTE: Monitor configuration utilities are also often available on the HP support website.

Security
Some HP workstations have a lock on the side access panel. The key for this lock is shipped attached to the
back panel of the workstation chassis.
Additional security features reduce the risk of theft and alert when there has been a chassis intrusion. See
the Maintenance and Service Guide for your workstation at
http://www.hp.com/support/
workstation_manuals for information about additional hardware and software security features available for
your system.
