I was just looking at some Dells that do not meet my > 90% criteria. I will add that for many products it's VERY DIFFICULT to find 90% + ratings including motherboards psus monitors and what have you. There are a lot of references to problems with Displayport and backlighting. It's a popular model however because of price and manufacturer rep I guess. 85%, which is what it is for this unit, means possible problems. My ideal gear has a combined Newegg 5 and 4 rating of 90% or greater. The reviews on Newegg are borderline for me. It looks like you might be getting to that point with your ASUS monitor. So I paid about $550 for a $300 graphics card because I have, into the bargain, a worthless brand new Sapphire Nitro RX 590.

Turns out I know how to put in a graphics card after all. Eventually I gave up, bought a 1660 TI and it installed easy and works perfectly (at least for now).

I felt that I was incompetent and didn't know how to install a graphics card properly. It was the third one in just a few weeks. That is essentially what happened on my RX 590 graphics card. So in that situation I'd say well maybe I should get me a Dell and eat the loss.
How to fix generic pnp monitor drivers#
So say I'm having these issues and a guy lent me a dell and it works that begins to look pretty good compared to waiting for repairs installing drivers posting on fora and still, at the end of the day, not having a working monitor. I have thrown what looks like "new" or "good" equipment out just to get it out of circulation and making people's lives miserable. If the other monitor was working on your build get yourself a dell and have done. With stuff like you're experiencing I eventually reach an aggro point where I'd rather spend more money on something else and move on. I've had this 5 years it must be getting over 20,000 hours.
How to fix generic pnp monitor 1080p#
It's 1080p I've decided not to upgrade to higher res or refresh because it's hard to get a piece of gear that just does what it is supposed to and does it for a long time. I've got a Dell monitor U2312HM and it is the best monitor I've owned. And who knows if you have the same monitor maybe they dropped some other monitor's innards into the frame. Unfortunately obviously dumb stuff is only obvious after you've figured it out.Ĭlick to expand.Well I'm getting the impression that the fixed monitor is not really fixed. So you need to review whether you might have been doing something obviously dumb (as I was). So I tried the Win 7 drivers and everything got better. Finally I realized I was on Win 8.1 not win 10. Since I now have Win 10 downstairs I pretty much automatically select Win 10 options these days. I was working on my upstairs build (new gpu) which is Win 8.1. You mentioned new gpu drivers, so I'm also going to mention a dumb thing I was doing that cost me an hour before I woke up and paid attention. You can also try looking on the net for OEM drivers, which I've never done for a monitor, but I guess there's always a first time. But there is some small non-zero chance it will. When I did that the "generic PnP" switched to Dell with model number. Win X > Device Manager > Monitors, open drop down, right click the PnP, select "update drivers." I'm at the end of my rope here because ASUS has not helped me at all, and they want me to start another RMA that I have to pay more shipping fees for and wait another 1-2 weeks to use my monitor. Anything I run causes the screen to black out and the display says that it's 'out of range'. The resolution is stuck at 1024x764, and even when I try to forcibly set the resolution to 1920x1080 the screen stretches and looks awful.
How to fix generic pnp monitor driver#
I've tried hard resets and replacing my DVI cables, using DisplayPort and HDMI connections, doing clean installs for my GPU driver and installing the VG278q drivers manually - nothing is working. A couple days ago my VG278Q monitor came back, but it isn't recognized by my PC and the device manager tells me it's a generic non-PnP monitor. Since the repairs could take anywhere from 1-2 weeks, I borrowed an old Dell LCD monitor from 2005 and a DVI-VGA cable from a friend. Recently I was having trouble with my ASUS VG278Q monitor, the back panel started acting up and I had to send it on maintenance.
