If you're on Windows, under Control Panel, and then, under Appearance and under Personalization, the Adjust screen resolution option should give some info about your monitor.

Was this monitor purchased used, or something?
The first thing to look at would be in Windows Device Manager.
If that only says "Generic Monitor", then check Windows Update and see if specific drivers are available that way.
If not, then use a flashlight and carefully inspect the monitor's exterior for any kind of identifying marks.
Some LCD monitors built-in on-screen adjustment menu may include the model number within the menu.
