Don't get your hardware updates from Microsoft. Get them from the
manufacturer's website.

Hi DDW,

Could you please tell me the hardwareIDs of your device?

You can find this by:
--> opening the device manager (start --> run --> devmgmt.msc)
--> selecting the monitor device
--> right clicking and selecting "properties"
--> Selecting the 'details' tab
--> Selecting "Hardware Ids" from the drop down box

Please copy/paste the list of hardwareIDs to this thread.
 
Damn,

I meant to reply to OP. Please disregard DDW.

"Monitor Update Failed" - my post was meant for you. :-)

i tried to dl the driver from the website does not work either.

MONITOR\SHP4023
is all that comes up.

i have a hdtv hooked up as the second screen, but it only shows one monitor
in the device manager, and the name under monitor says (generic pnp monitor).

is there something i have to do to get more access or something ??

TWO monitors? Anything ELSE you forgot to mention?
 
What make and model graphics card do you have and what driver release for it
are you using?
What interface are you using for each of the displays?
What shows up in Display Settings?

NVIDIA GeForce 9400 (GeForce 9300GE + GeForce 8200)
driver version 7.15.11.7496
1680 by 1050 pixels on monitor with the problem and 1020 by 768 on the other.

dont know what u mean by interface

sry i didnt mention that i had 2 monitors didnt know that it made a
difference since i had this problem even before i hoooked up the other
monitor.

wonder y the monitor doesnt even show up in the device manager.
 
Windows Update only has Certified Drivers which will often be months or
more behind that which a manufacturer actually has out. Check the driver
at the Maker's site. HIDE the Update in Windows Updates as it is trying
to install an older driver which is typical.

Never once have I had Window's Updates suggest a driver when I didn't
already have a newer version.
