The drivers include ability to output certain resolutions, which monitors accept or will not based upon their internal workings. An example... My Dell outputs only the traditional resolutions in the 4:3 ratios.... 640x480 or 1024x764.. but the newer monitors are of different, widescreen, resolutions. Thus I can not run the widescreen monitors on my Dell, or more accurately, I can not run the widescreen resolutions on my monitor....I can run the traditional ones..... There are drivers for specific monitors, which allow stuff like corrections, etc to be done on the screen.... but this is not what I think you are asking...... Frank Filippone Red735i at earthlink.net Do PC monitors need drivers, or do I just need driver(s) for the graphics card? I'm a bit confused because when go into control panel and select displays, it says 'plug and play monitor', so presumably uses a generic driver.
