Microsoft Vista Will Ignore Your Monitor

October 5th 2005 | Microsoft

A report said an implementation of a system wide content protection scheme in Microsoft Vista will mean many screens will display a "monitor revoked" message.

According to an article in PC World, the scheme called PVP-OPM is intended to stop pirated disks from displaying their content. But a side effect means that the same scheme will lock out displays which don’t support PVP-OPM.
