Thank you - Thomas Bollinger There's your problem - the monitor inf file should offer you a choice of Digital and Analog (assuming your monitor is the dual input type) - try getting the correct/updated drivers (more correctly called an inf file) for it and then install the ATI drivers etc. Paul |
Paul, thanks for your input. If I get you right here is what I ought to do:
- uninstall (clean-up) all ATI driver sofware - reinstall the acer.inf file (right click, install) - reinstall the drivers I'll try that and post my result, thank you "Paul Murphy" wrote in message ...

Almost my intentions...
"Thomas Bollinger" wrote in message om... Paul, thanks for your input. If I get you right here is what I ought to do: - uninstall (clean-up) all ATI driver sofware Using the uninstall utility within add/remove programs and reboot afterwards (warning: the screen will look horrible when it gets back into windows - thats normal). That should be all thats required and I certainly wouldn't recommend things like editing the registry and manually deleting files. - reinstall the acer.inf file (right click, install) No - you need to check that this is the correct (and latest) inf file for your EXACT monitor first. The installation would best be performed AFTER the next step below (latest driver reinstall) and then a reboot but NOT by right clicking and selecting install. What you'll need to do is go into device manager and find the monitor (or whatever monitor is in there), go to its driver tab and update the driver to the latest correct one you have (Windows XP has that update driver button), ensuring you select the digital option if you have it connected that way. - reinstall the drivers It would be a good idea (if not already occurred) to install the latest DirectX (9.0c) before installing the latest drivers. You can see what version of DirectX is on your machine by typing "dxdiag" (without the quotation marks) in the run box. I'll try that and post my result, thank you Best wishes Paul |
