Display
contains display settings for a video adapter.
The Display
setting is used during the Windows PE phase of the Windows installation process. The display settings are not applied to the Windows installation. To change the display settings for the Windows installation, see Display in the Microsoft-Windows-Shell-Setup component.
We recommend that you use the default settings. If you select a value for this setting that is not supported by Windows PE, your video adapter, or the display monitor, then Windows PE might show only a blank screen without displaying an error.
