When we connect an older ADI 19" monitor to a Vista laptop, it shows no image even though the monitor power light is green, indicating a video signal.
I played with all the settings in display properties for the second monitor (refresh rate, resolution), the function-F5 key to select the display, etc., did not help.
When I connect a different monitor to the Vista laptop it runs instantly, so the VGA port and laptop work fine.
When I connect the ADI monitor to a different laptop, an older WinME laptop, it works fine instantly. So the monitor works fine.
In display properties it shows the monitor as a non-pnp generic monitor. It says the driver is installed and the device is working correctly.
I decided to try a different driver, so I looked online to find a monitor driver, but when I tried to install it, Vista said it already had the most up to date driver installed. And monitors usually run anyway even without the driver, so I am not sure if looking for a driver is the way to go.
Any ideas?
Thanks
