I got the 2485W for Christmas, but it was the floor model, so it did not come with any discs. Is there a driver for this to use under VISTA? It lists my monitor as 'Generic PnP Monitor'. Is that a problem? I'd really like to have it display correctly.

Thanks in advance!

Unless the monitor pivots you do not need drivers for Vista.

It pivots... EZtune is supposed to do that... but apparently doesn't work with the latest NVIDIA drivers.

Here is Gateway's Link on the monitor

I have the same one it is a great monitor. I would buy the warranty protection though. My power supply died 10 months into it. I was able to RMA.

No drivers should really be needed. If everything seems to be working, I wouldn't worry about it.
