I wish they didn't, then my trinitron wouldn't lose my settings all the time and resize itself. Dell monitors have drivers.

That is the most un-userfriendly site in the history of the internet. I tried a couple searches there and didn't find anything.

Many monitors have an .inf file which is not a driver, it's just a text file that defines to Windows the possible resolutions and refresh rates the monitor can support so you don't choose one the monitor can't support. That's all it does.

Device manager> monitors > select current monitor> click driver tab (see Bozo1 even microsoft calls it a driver) > update driver.
