Hi Angelo,

The video driver is only for the graphics card and not for the monitor. That has a separate driver of it's own if one is available for it. I did not see one listed for your monitor model number at Acer, but as long as you are able to use that native screen resolution you should be fine.

Hope this helps,
Shawn

Re: 9800 gx2 Generic PnP Monitor

do you have dual screens? if you only have 1 screen.. thats all that it will show there where you choose your res..

or are you thinkin there should be 2 cuz the Dual GFX card.. cuz thats not how it works.. the computer see's it as 1 card.

Angelo,

According to your screenshots, you currently have 512 MB of actual dedicated memory for your graphics card.

As Gunther posted, you will not see a montitor 2 listed unless you have a second monitor plugged into the graphics card as well.

Hope this helps,
Shawn
