I am sorry but i can not find it
And when i try ANYTHING on the dell website, it demands a service tag number
and no matter how hard i look I can not find anything that says service tag!!!

I believe its because this screens should be with a desktop which would have a ST

So the DELL site is useless.

can anyone help me out finding one?

i just want to get the required resolution for this screen :(
 
I didn't see your (S199WFP) monitor in the list unless Dell lists it as S199WFPF, but this is the link.

I have never personally needed to rely on the drivers for the monitors because they are generic PnP monitors. Your graphics engine has a lot to do with resolution. What res. are you experiencing? Yeah, monitors don't have Service Tags; make's it hard getting them RMA'd to DELL.
 
i think you nailed it
yeah but this screen is really wide and i only have onboard graphics for now
so I dont have the control I would if I had a better card.
coming soon! heh

I will see if these work!

Thanks!
 
actually i grabbed the file
and after extracting it comes with four files
none of which are an exe or install file
the site simply tells me to type into RUN the file dir
and follow onscreen instructions
but that just opens the folder
am i missing a program to install these drivers?
 
Is there an .inf file? If so, go to the control panel -> device manager -> and go to the properties of your monitor, select update driver and point windows at the .inf file.
 
Have you restarted your PC since the plug in of the monitor? Stupid Question, but I have to ask.

Click to expand...

Yes, if there is an .inf file which there should be you can follow this route and update the PnP for the monitor.
