HP w2408 LCD Monitor Driver Help

I have had this monitor as long as I've had my HP Media Center PC. It's running with Vista Home Premium. Each time i try to install the driver via Windows Update it fails. Anyone have any ideas? Your help is much appreciated. Thanks.

Hello Walter98. There is no supported driver on the Windows 8 operating system for this monitor. I would like you to view this link as it will provide information on this issue: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&docname=c03512749
To update the driver in Device Manager, you right-click on the device and select "Update Driver". If you are lucky, this might do the trick.

Windows XP Driver For LCD Monitors

Hi!
This topic may be out of place so apologies in advance but i was wondering if Toshiba have created any Windows XP Display drivers for LCD Monitors?
I have a Toshiba 26WL36 LCD monitor capable of producing a resolution of 1280 by 768. However, the quality of the picture decreases as the resolution is increased.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks For your time.

Hi Jav
If some driver were created it would be probably delivered with the LCD Monitor. The quality and screen resolution depends on graphic card.
Sorry but it is not known to me that any LCD display need a driver.

Blank screen, Intel Mac mini, Samsung P23700 LCD monitor; HELP!?!

I just got a new 23" Samsung LCD monitor and hooked it up to an Intel Mac mini. Turning on the system results in a blank screen with the monitor simply displaying a dialog box that seems to show that it is trying to figure out if the incoming signal is digital or analog. This dialog box is on for a few seconds and then the monitor goes to sleep. The monitor realizes that there is a signal coming in; As soon as I disconnect the DVI cable I get the standard "Check Signal Cable" on the monitor's screen. I don't even get the initial white screen on the Mac boot up. nothing. just the monitor's confused signal identifying dialog.
I've tried connecting the Mac mini to the monitor with a DVI to DVI cable and a DVI to VGA to DVI connection, with the same result.
I've also tried the monitor with an older PowerPC based Mac mini with the same result.
Both Macmini's work with out a problem when connected to my 32" LCD TV with a DVI to HDMI cable.
I also tried the Samsung monitor with a little Windows XP running laptop using the VGA to DVI cable and the monitor worked like a charm; I think that fact has been the most painful part of the process up to now.
The windows machine's screen set up that worked was 1280x800 at 40Hz. I can't get a resolution like that on the Mac's display settings. I've only been able to hook it up to the LCD TV, and the display settings when hooked up to the TV are limited to LCD TV settings; i.e. 1080i. I've also tried setting the mac mini to 800x600 but still get no picture.
Resetting PRAM etc. didn't help either.
I'm stuck... any ideas people?

I've tried connecting the Mac mini to the monitor with a DVI to DVI cable...
That should work.
and a DVI to VGA to DVI connection...
That won't work. Once you go from DVI to VGA from the mini, you need to stay VGA. There is no going back to digital. So try DVI to VGA and then a VGA cable to the Samsung.
I also tried the Samsung monitor with a little Windows XP running laptop using the VGA to DVI cable and the monitor worked like a charm;...The windows machine's screen set up that worked was 1280x800 at 40Hz.
I wouldn't call that working like a charm. 1280 x 800 at 40Hz is a completely bizarre resolution for a 23" monitor, or any monitor. I would begin wondering if you got a bad monitor if that's the best it can do.

I'm using a viewsonic 19" LCD monitor with a powermac 7100/66. The only resolution available in the monitor control panel is 640x480. The viewsonic gives me a message to use 1440x900. The mac specs state it's capable of 1152x870 @ 8 bit. Help!

I'm using a viewsonic 19" LCD monitor with a powermac 7100/66 running Mac OS 7.6.1. The only resolution available in the monitor control panel is 640x480. The viewsonic gives me a message to use 1440x900. The mac specs state it's capable of 1152x870 @ 8 bit. How can I get a higher resolution?

For unsupported resolutions, one may need to see if there are any software
solutions; maybe the minimum specs of the display are not met by an 8-bit
color specification of the video card in the computer.
Does the display support two kinds of connections, another one, plus VGA?
Could be the display needs some other support for it to work. Drivers?
VRAM? A different control panel and (third-party) software?
The limits may vary due to the VRAM on the card. With enough there, and
with a VGA connection (or supported converter to/from older Mac DB-15)
and the video graphics card with minimal supported specs will show that.
Been several years since I've run any PowerMac, & only used a variety of
Apple CRT color displays with them. Most times, they were very adequate.
A wider array of original choices appeared in the Displays control panel...
So I suspect the lack of video support in the graphics card or VRAM, to be
a player in this resolution limit you see in the control panel. A later CPU/GPU
and better hardware, later Mac OS, offered greater support for newer driver
along with better results.
There may not be a workable upgrade to a different graphic video card for
that old a vintage computer; or if there was one, to locate that now may be
a next-to-impossible mission. Was there any hints in the web site for older
Macs, the LowEndMac site, or others? Some are no longer current sites.
In any event...
Good luck & happy computing!

LCD monitor suggestions...HELP!!!

I have 2 Samsung 910T monitors with my Mac Pro....I want to get 2 widescreen monitors to replace them...I LOVE my color rendition of the Samsungs, they have 1000:1 contrast ratio, and nice brightness....370...My prints look EXACTLY as they do on my monitors...so I am reluctant to change. So I was looking at the Samsung 244T 24" widescreen LCD's, 1000:1 contrast, 470 brightness....so it looks good spec-wise....The Apple 23", which is not quite as good spec wise (but specs are not everything)..The Dell 2407, which looks almost identical to the Smasung...the Benq 24" which may actually be the EXACT same panel as the Samsung, and then possibly 1 30" instead of 2 24"...The options there are the Apple 30" and the Dell 3007 30"...The Dell can be had for about $1300 which is only a few more than a 23"!!! The question is how is the color, the calibration, and accuracy....What is everyone using?

Images too dark on Samsung monitor - please help!

We've just upgraded a Samsung 21" monitor to a Samsung 30" (305T).
In just TWO applications, Photoshop CS3 and Windows Photo Gallery (Vista64), all photographic images are much too dark. Not subtly, about 3-4 f-stops too dark.
EVERY other of our applications INCLUDING ADOBE BRIDGE AND FIREWORKS, and even Photoshop itself during Save to Web, displays the photos as they should appear.
I've tried setting various profiles in Windows Color Management as the default, including the ICC profile sRGB IEC61966-2.1 (which my reading says we should be using), as well as WCS profiles sRGB virtual and scRGB virtual, and tried using no profile at all. None of these changes makes any apparent difference at all to the images we're seeing.
In Photoshop, I've tried various options too. If set to Monitor Color (Monitor RGB - * wscRGB) Photoshop then displays images as it should. However the Camera Raw display when loading Nikon images is still much too dark, and the Photoshop Save to Web images are much too light. Arrrgh!
The monitor does not include any driver software, just electronic documentation (poorly edited) which offers no advice about this. I've seen references to various Gamma utilities, but not sure that's what I need. Is it?
Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated!
TIA

Thanks Peter & Sid. I appreciate the advice, but it doesn't match our experience over 12 years of designing web applications so I'm having trouble understanding what's different, can I ask for any more advice you might have?
If we calibrate the monitor using the recommended tools, will Photoshop images look 2-3 f-stops brighter (i.e. as they should look) and will images in all other apps (which look fine now, have always looked fine) look 2-3 f-stops too bright? Or would we be changing JUST the way Photoshop sees the images?
Through probably a dozen different previous CRT and LCD monitors, we've never calibrated anything. Even on our immediately-previous Samsung 213T monitor, images appear pretty much the same in Photoshop as they do in all other places. That includes published web sites viewed with several popular browsers and viewed on literally hundreds of different systems inside and outside of our office.
The previous monitor was being used with exactly the same software and hardware as the new one. The only thing that's changed is the monitor.
Peter asks about brightness or white point luminance. I haven't used any tool to determine that. The monitor is set to 50% brightness, for whatever that's worth, but I can tell you that it is substantially BRIGHTER on white than the previous monitor. The previous Samsung monitor is being run side-by-side with the new one, and it looks quite dull and yellow beside the new one (and we thought it was a great monitor!) The new 30" Samsung has MUCH whiter whites. Does that help even a little?
Thanks for any further advice.

LCD Monitor Resolutions

Having a slight problem with a Viewsonic VX2235wm LCD Monitor installed approx 3 weeks ago.
Installed on a Windows XP Home OEM computer with a MSI NVIDIA GEFORCE NX6600-TD 256MB PCIE TVO DVI card installed
I have been using same setup only as Digital with a Digital DVI-D cable connected to the graphics card [Please Note! = I had not connected the monitor with the “Analog” cable]
Now!
Came home tonight, started up the computer and I found the screen resolutions were all out of plumb.
Had lost the required 1680 x 1050 which was not listed [All I had showing were 3 only = 1680x 2100 , 1024 x 768 and 800 x 600 =]
I was advised to try to overcome this by updating the drivers for the card as I was only using NVIDIA v7.212(MSIVersion) so I updated same using NVIDIAv8419(MSIVersion) and then again used the “MSI Live Update“ to update same with NIVIDAv162-18 (MSIVersion)
The above drivers updating did not help?
I gave some thought and removed the digital cable and I connected the monitor only with the VGA Analog setup and found I had a functional monitor as Analog with all resolutions below! All looks OK and screen presentation crisp and excellent
1680 x 1050
1600 x 900
1440 x 900
1400 x 1050
1280 x 1024
1280 x 960
1152 x 864
1024 x 768
Now the question is do I have a faulty graphics card or a faulty monitor?

Satellite L - LCD monitor flashing black after desktop loads

My LCD monitor has started flashing black at startup. It doesn't do it if I log off and log back in, only on startup. I can log in, the desktop loads and everything looks normal then after about 7 seconds everything goes black, then the taskbar quickly appears then disappears and then the desktop becomes visible again momentarily but goes black again. It repeats this very fast two or three times then starts normally.
Everything seems to be working fine otherwise. I disabled my antivirus so it wouldn't startup but that didn't help. I've done some registry cleaning lately so I restored everything back to well before this started and that didn't help either. I've done a lot of installing and uninstalling of software lately but can't pinpoint anything that might have caused it. This computer is about 2 years old. I have Vista 32 bit, service pack 2.
Anyone ever seen this before or have any ideas what the culprit might be? Really appreciate any advice.

OK, I connected a CRT monitor from another computer and it basically did it too. As the laptop screen was flashing off and on, the CRT screen went black and then came back on when the laptop went back to normal.
I think my graphics card is Intel Display Driver 7.15.10.1502. Does that sound right? I checked for an update through the Device Manager and it said no update is available. The same version is the only one listed at the Toshiba Downloads page. It's included with my Toshiba Application Installer so I'm tempted to uninstall/reinstall, but I'm afraid if it doesn't automatically install at at startup I won't have a monitor. Any advice on this or anything else is appreciated.

Vista desktop filcker on LCD monitor w/ iTunes (visualization)

Vista desktop filckers on LCD monitor ONLY when iTunes is displaying visualization and/or when im using QuickTime. Please help. Do i need a better video card than the one the PC came with? Its only a little more than a year old. My HP does not have this problem nor my PC laptop. The issue is with A Dell Inspiron 530s slim built with vista 32 home premium. All drivers are updated. Anyone know why?

Hey, thanks for your reply. What happened was that I went to the Intel website and downloaded a program that checks for driver updates for your display adapter(in device manager) a while back ....and so what I did was downgraded it back to the previous version which works perfect..Intel(R) G33/G31 Express Chipset Family Driver version 7.14.10.1322.... version intel 7.15.10.** messed up APPLE programs. Made my Apple applications like iTunes and Quicktime flash and expose desktop theme for a few seconds on and off.

Connecting 2 LCD monitors to my Macbook?

Hello Everyone.
Ok, before I go poking around and stuff something up, can someone please answer my following questions. I am wanting to connect two LCD 22inch monitors to my Macbook Pro.
1. How do I do this?
2. Instead of buying Apple screens, are there any other good LCD monitors that will do just a good a job?
Please help.
Thanks....I love my MAC

1. http://www.matrox.com/graphics/en/corpo/products/home.php
check graphic expansion modules
2. for serious work I would strongly recommend eizo monitors. current apple displays simply cant compete with them. They are very outdated and therefore overpriced. they have poor adjusting possibilities..in both picture and stands.

External 1920 x 900 LCD Monitor on MBP

I am wondering if I connect an LCD monitor that has a 1920x900 native resolution, if I can get that resolution when it is connected to my MBP?

Yes. The MacBook's video card can drive an external monitor up to 2560x1600.

What connects do I need to hook up a 2nd LCD monitor to my p7-1380t HP computer?

My current monitor is a Samsung Starlight LCD monitor hooked up to my p7--1380t (approx 23 inches). I want to set up a 2nd monitor which is a DELL LCD (unable to find monitor model #).
Can you advise me which ports to use on the back of my computer and which cable type I should get for the Dell monitor?

Okrafarmboy, welcome to the forum.
We don't have information on Dell monitors. However, I believe that it will be either VGA or DVI (D or I). It depends on the age of the monitor.
Here is a guide to help you connect the two monitors to the computer.

Skype video not supported on external lcd monitor

I would like to use the camera on my Apple LCD monitor with Skype, but video seems not to be supported.

Seeing as how Skype is not an Apple product, you might have a much better chance of an answer if you go to Skype for help.

Quality of screen color flashes after connecting to external LCD monitor

After connecting my Powerbook G4 to an external LCD monitor via s-video, the quality of the image on the built-in screen flashes back and forth between what seems like a 8 or 16-bit image and a 32-bit image. I have run the hardware test and everything checks out fine but the image is grainy and washed out and only sometimes returns to normal. I have also reset PRAM and PMU to no effect, as well as tried recalibrating the display. And oddly, the external display is fine.
This is terribly frustrating as all colors are washed out and I can't truly gauge what I am doing design wise. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Thank you, Silly Rabbit. I actually only hook the Powerbook up to the external monitor (LCD TV) to watch movies, show photos, etc. I don't actually use an external monitor on a daily basis.
Your suggestion is a good one, which I appreciate. I am going to the Genius Bar this afternoon, so hopefully they can provide a solution for the built-in screen.
Thanks again!
