How can I update my monitor drivers?

[aznpiggy]

Hi, I purchased a ASUS VS239H-P a while back and I just noticed that my computer recognizes it as a Generic PnP Monitor. The specifications of the monitor says it has 75hz. But in monitor settings, it says it only has 60hz. I've tried downloading the drivers through Asus website but none of them worked.

Thanks.

monitors don't really have drivers it normal for it to appear as generic pnp monitor.

They have firmware, not drivers. Don't need updating nearly ever. Not in your case either.

You can "overclock" your monitor, but that's not adivseable. It is very complicated, and risky. Most monitors will over heat. This will prove challenging to game on when it is melting.

Also, all the generic PNP monitors will show 75hz, mine do. I am not sure why. But they are all 60hz according to manufact.

What is the model number? Also what graphics card do you have?

I am reading it says 50-75 hz, so 60hz in general. If there ins't a setting on the screen it's self... and you really want that extra refreshing rate here:

Don't forget to pick a solution. 😀

According to the chart on page 25 of the manual, the refresh rate is dependent on the resolution.

thank God you answered, because for the past TWO YEARS the guy has been staring at a blank 60Hz screen wondering what to do next...

Ever hear of Google? I know numbers in the billions might be hard for you to comprehend, but with that many people using computers, I doubt that this is the only person with a similar question. I stumbled onto this while looking for something else. It was simple to answer. So why not answer it in case someone else wants to know?
