                6,064,443 (hereinafter the '443 patent), issued May 16, 2000, to Ji-Young Lee                          
                entitled "Method for Detecting and Separating Vertical and Horizontal                                  
                Synchronous Signals from Computer System," based on Application                                        
                08/880,675, filed June 23, 1997.  The '443 patent claims the benefit under                             
                35 U.S.C. § 119 of Republic of Korea application P-96-22949, filed                                     
                June 21, 1996.  The '443 patent is assigned to SamSung Electronics Co., Ltd.,                          
                Republic of Korea, the real party in interest.                                                         

                                     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION                                                       
                       The invention relates to a method and apparatus for detecting and                               
                processing vertical and horizontal synchronous signals from a computer.                                
                When the vertical and horizontal synchronous signals are missing, "reference"                          
                vertical and horizontal synchronous signals are generated in their place.                              
                       Claim 58 is reproduced below.                                                                   
                              58.  A display monitor having a video signal processor and a                             
                       synchronous signal processor, said synchronous signal processor                                 
                       outputting processed vertical and horizontal synchronous signals to said                        
                       video signal processor so that said video signal processor can process                          
                       video signals from a computer synchronously with the processed                                  
                       vertical and horizontal synchronous signals, said display monitor                               
                       comprising:                                                                                     
                              a microcomputer connected to said computer for detecting at                              
                       least one synchronous signal output from said computer to said display                          
                       monitor;
