There are quite a few options in the OSD that are greyed out and therefore I am unable to change them. The main one I want, Auto Adjust I have this problem with. I just got the 2005fpw yesterday, and I am running Windows XP x64.

The dell CD drivers do not work on x64, so I am unable to get the system to recognize the monitor as anything but Plug and Play. I guess I should also mention that I'm connecting the monitor to the PC via a DVI cable.

The question is; how do I enable the Auto Adjust setting, and are there x64 drivers for this monitor?

Thanks!

Auto Adjust is not available when the monitor is connected over DVI, nor do you need it anyway - it's meant for optimizing analog/VGA signals. As for the x64 drivers, you shouldn't need them, at most you might have to add 1680x1050 as a custom resolution in your video drivers. :)

Ah, I kind of figured that was the case (unavailable via dvi). Thanks for confirming my suspicions :)
