Lenovo L192 ThinkVision Monitor 6920-AB1 Windows 7 Drivers

Hello there. My first post ever. I pride myself on being able to nut out most problems on my own, but this one has me baffled... I'd really appreciate some advice.
So... I bought a Lenovo L192 monitor second hand, thinking that the maximum 1440x900 pixels would easily compensate for the loss of my ancient Dell monitor (nothing so permanent as a temporary fix, right?).
And it did. So long as I was running Linux. Then the maximum resolution worked a treat. Out of the box. No config required.
Then I needed Windows 7, so I installed it (a major personal achievement I won't go into) and activated successfully - so it's legit, 100%, Windows 7 Ultimate, single licence, single use, no problems there.
Now, when the Windows 7 installs, it gives me three options for screen resolution, two of which work, the other not. When I installed the Vista drivers it gives me the first two options, and I lose the third (which didn't work anyway, so no great loss). The problem being that the max resolution available to me is 1024x768 either way.
Now, before I lose you altogether, I've tried everything I can think of. I've tried searching (and upgrading every official driver along the way from) the ibm website, this lenovo website, support.lenovo.com, microsoft, ati (who do the video card), I have googled till the cows come home, everything, but I just cannot get the maximum resolution out of this monitor on Windows 7...
Is this an XGA limitation thing (and if so, how do I fix it)? Is this a driver thing? Is it a video card thing? Is it a Windows 7 thing? Have I wasted time and money barking up the wrong tree and it just downright isn't possible?!
I find it hard to believe that 'upgrading' my OS could give me less support for my monitor rather than more. Is this the case here?
Thanks for reading this far,
Phil.

according to the above, the graphics card is not supported in your windows 7, which is why you can't get a resolution above xga.
Maybe it is time to consider a graphics card upgrade in the server.

  • Cant Get Optimal Resolution with Lenovo L192 LCD Monitor after GeForce video driver upgrade

    Hello,
    I just upgraded my GeForce video drivers for the integrated GeForce 6100 video chipset in my Lenovo 3000 series desktop.  My monitor is a Lenovo L192 LCD.  It has been working fine but I decided to upgrade the video drivers.  After installation and reboot, I can no longer get the optimal resolution of 1440 x 900 for this monitor.  The highest resolution offered is 1360 x 768.  I had this same problem the last time I upgraded the video drivers but somehow I manged or someone told me how to get the higher resolution.  I reverted back to the old driver that was working fine and now I can't get the higher resolution with that driver either.  I think I have the latest driver provided by Lenovo for the monitor.
    I am running Windows XP SP3.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Could you fix it or does anyone else have a solution?

  • Anybody using M83 with Win 8/8.1 and a non-Lenovo touch screen monitor?

    Colleagues,
    My first post, thinking of buying a couple of custom ThinkCentre M83 and wanted to make sure they work well with Windows 8/8.1 and a non-Lenovo touch screen monitor.
    Thanks in advance.

    That is a very good question.  The reason I am asking this is because Lenovo also said that the AIO C325 were touch screen and I bought 3 of them for a small business I have.  None of the 3 screens work as touch screens and, of course, they are already out of warranty.
    In this case, I plan to purchase 2 M83's which will not be particularly cheap once I add all the components I need and I will not be very happy with Lenovo if a third party touch screen didn't work.
    So, I am looking for forum users who have M83's with third party touch screens to make sure I won't get into trouble again.
    Regards.

  • Photoshop CS3 doesn't like "Lenovo ThinkPad LCD Monitor" color management profile

    When launching Photoshop CS3 Extended, I get a warning:
    The monitor profile "Lenovo ThinkPad LCD Monitor" appears to be defective. Please rerun your monitor calibration software.
    [Ignore Profile] [Use Anyway]
    If this can be confirmed, could it please be the target of a minor update/patch?
    This recent T61p 15.4" WSXGA+ notbook's monitor is honestly pretty bad in terms of color accuracy. The overall sense is very blue; yellows show up orange. Is this normal? But that's really a side issue. I do most of my work on an external monitor anyway.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Thank you very kindly, Erik; my searches hadn't found that. However, my T61p appears to already have that software -- not surprising as that was released in December and this notebook was built about a month ago.
    I tried the instructions given, but Windows said my computer was already up-to-date. I suppose I could try uninstalling what the computer came with and reinstalling the download...
    [Edit 1]
    Ah, wait... I retried it from the device manager instead of display properties -- here, I could be sure I was picking the proper "monitor" (the display properties showed only my external monitor). It did instal... said I had version 4.0 and v 4.1 has the "fix" according to the readme.
    It wants me to reboot. I'll post again if somehow that didn't do it.

    [Edit 2]
    Yes, indeed... Photoshop no longer complains. So, I wonder why this isn't in the software build or at least in the updates I've been faithfully downloading. But thanks again, Erik.

  • Lenovo C340 i3 System - Dual boot windows 7 / 8 cant load windows 7 please help

    Hi there
    I have a lenovo c340 all in one pc the i3 processor type which came with windows 8
    I have purchased a new hard drive and would like to dual boot windows 7 and 8
    I have tried to install windows 7 and the system hangs before I even get into any configuration however windows 8 loads fine
    I have looked in the bios and the system is showing windows 8 . has lenovo locked the bios to allow windows 8 only ?
    Is there a way to load windows 7 onto the system ?
    I really want to dual boot and have downloaded all of the drivers for windows 7 but for the life of me I can not get past the initial boot screen of my windows 7 disc
    Can anyone help please

    hi botards01,
    If you're planning to use linux occasionally (Ubuntu for example) and you don't want to risk losing the One Key Recovery functionality, try to install Ubuntu via Wubi as this doesn't repartition your HDD but creates a virtual disk on your current OS.
    Check it out - Install Ubuntu in Windows With Wubi
    Hope this helps

  • Lenovo g550 windows xp drivers will not load

    Help!  I purchased a Lenovo G550 yesterday and am in need of assistance.  Unfortuantely it doesn't appear that there is any way to contact Lenovo, the website doesn't show any method of even emailing them without an IBM service tag (which unless you are corporate user you can't get). 
    I purchased a lenovo g550 yesterday configuration is 3gb ram 160Gb HDD.  Upon booting the system I discovered that in fact users only get access to about 100Gb of the harddrive the rest is set up under multiple hidden drives.  I the system came with windows 7 home edition.  I need windows xp.  So through several hours of work I was able to create some unallocated space on the harddrive.  I loaded my copy of windows xp professional to this space and since windows automatically selects the drive name it is drive D: 
    I went to the lenovo website prior to loading xp and manually downloaded every driver from the site (very time consuming, I saw another way via a forum but was not able to locate it on the lenovo website).  Immendiately after loading xp and rebooting I loaded the intel chipset driver.  Then rebooted.  No other drivers will load for any of the other pieces of hardware.  All of THEM, everyone crashes with an error message that there is not enough disk space on c: to load.  I would guess that there isn't since c: is a 200mb hidden drive created by Lenovo. 
    Does anyone have a work around for this problem with the lenovo drivers?  This has turned into a multi-hour project for something very simple - putting an alternative operating system on the computer.  I cannot put xp as the c: drive because of the lenovo hidden partition is named c:.  I don't want to delete windows 7, as I expect to move to it in the next year but right now I several thousand dollars worth of software in xp and need to use that software. 
    I sure would appreciate any assistance :-)  Again the issue is the lenovo windows xp drivers, everyone of them excluding the intel chipset driver will not load under windows xp when windows xp is loaded onto the d: partition.  they all say they want to load onto the c: parition which is not an option.
    thanks in advance for any help and if anyone knows how to get in contact with lenovo would love that also.

    Well if you do not want win7 all together, then just delete all the partitions and install your XP. But if your not wanting to mess up this drive to be able to use the win7 later then just buy a cheap HDD to put XP on. --> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148452 $10 off and free shipping. but being that you already tried installing XP then you already messed up win7 anyways(if you did not make the restore disks), your better off just deleting and redoing XP.

  • How to force dialog boxes to appear on same monitor as program window?

    I have a three-monitor setup, with the Adobe Acrobat X program window on my right-most monitor.  Running Windows 7 64-bit SP1.
    My Open and Save dialogs remember where they are and logically show up on the right monitor where the program is.
    However, other dialogs, particularly the "Document Properties" and "Rotate Pages" dialogs, always appear on the left-most monitor no matter where I place them.  It just doesn't remember it's settings.  It's a pain to always have to stop what I'm doing on the right monitor and completely rotate my head around to the left monitor.  Does anyone know a way around this glitch?
    Thanks!

  • Are all Lenovo laptops shipped with the same Windows 7 Home Premium Product Key?

    We've puchased a number of Lenovo Gxxx laptops and record the Windows 7 Product key, using Magical Jellybean or another tool, for a variey of reasons, including the fact that they clickly wear off the bottom of the laptop.  I've noticed that the laptops all report the same OEM Key, which doesn't match the sticker on the bottom of the laptop.  I've never encountered this with other laptops; is something wrong here?

    If they all use Lenovo's Windows 7 Home Premium, just create a restore DVD or call them for one and you can use that 1 DVD to reinstall any of them. Due to the Key hidden in you bios/mobo when you install with Lenovo's CD you will not have to enter in a Key (as it see yours already) I know for a fact cause it did it for me. I did not have to enter a Key. If you are to use the CD for a none Lenovo PC it will ask you for a Key (as it did when I installed it in VirtualBox) And like I stated before it's a VL that is pre-installed with new systems.

  • Lenovo S400 Windows XP Drivers needed

    Hello can I use the Windows 7 drivers to install Windows XP on Lenovo Ideapad S400?
    Or can I Download anywhere the XP Drivers?

    hi Napkid,
    Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
    Windows XP drivers are not listed under support site for this model.
    If you really want to push for Windows XP you will need to get those manually from Manufacturers.
    You can check device's Hardware ID under Device Manager to identify the brand and model.
    Then look it up online for driver download
