REFRESH RATE

[rasheed np]

HELLO,I am using an old model monitor, dell p7771p. Recently I installed windows 7 ultimate. Now I am unable to change refresh rate,there is no option on the monitor tab only have"Use hardware default setting'. Driver update shows'Best driver already installed'.But aero trouble shooter indicates" contact manufacture for driver'. When it was windows xp I could change the refresh rate. Here are hardware info. Adapter-standard vga graphic adapter, chip type-ATI rage 128, BIO- 01.000. PC- DTK-MS-6566. Could you please help to fix this problem without buying a new vedio card? Thanks

Digitel signer-Microsoft Windows.If I should install the driver, please give the link and steps to uninstall the current driver and install a new one.THANK YOU.

Use the link below. Once you have the link open in a new browser, select " Automatically detect and install " at the top right of the screen.

As a general rule don't use Windows updates to update drivers, rather go t the manufacturers website and download the drivers from there.
