W700 Monitor Device Driver. Could someone check for me?

#1 Post by barrywohl » Tue Nov 10, 2009 8:42 am

Could someone with a W700 1920 x 1200 display have a quick look at Device Manger for me and tell me what driver you have for the monitor? I'm looking the the device name and driver number.

I upgraded my W700 to Windows 7 and I upgraded my T61p to Windows 7. The T61p has a "Thinkpad 1920 x 1200" monitor in device manager, but my W700 has a generic PnP in device manager. I suspect something is wrong. I did both upgrades as "clean install" on a blank hard drive rather than writing over the Vista Ultimate x64 drives. I could slip those back in and look myself.

In addition, in Control Panel on the W700 I have the nVidia nView Desktop Manager on both computers, but only the T61p has the nVidia Control Panel.

Thanks in advance for the help.

I found the Monitor Driver 79oi18ww.exe .

Now for the nVidia Control Panel Applet.

By the way, Lenovo System Update 4.0 let me down on the monitor driver.
