Should be able to go into Control Panel and delete the existing
monitor, then add the new one.  If it's a modern DPMI monitor
Windows could probably detect it on reboot.  I know the M$ W98
defaults for my test bench's IBM 8513 won't work at anything
but 16/256 colors, and 256 only after I diddled the .INF file
to set the right default refresh rate.  So the default detection
might or might not work.
