KDS Visual Sensations monitor drivers problem

foldingchair · Nov 14, 2004, 07:44 PM

hey I have a KDS Visual Sensations monitor and i wanted to update to the latest drivers because im having a few problems with it. I went to the KDS driver download page here but im having a problem finding my model number. When i go to display, then settings, it tells me that my monitor is named:

KDS Visual Sensations XF-70/XF-7e/XF-7p/XF-7i

OK, so i go back to the download page and look for that monitor. The problem is, it says its a Visual Sensations, so i go to that category, but the XF series of monitors is not a visual sensation monitor, its an Extreme Flat monitor. So i figured i should trust the actual model number, but then there is another problem. IT says i have model # XF-70/XF-7e/XF-7p/XF-7i. This is a problem because each one of those 4 model numbers has a different driver for download.

Which one do i get? Is there a better way to find out what my monitor # is? I looked in help and i didnt see anything on this problem.

Thanks for the help.

KDS has a habit of removing drivers.... or even that the monitor even excisted from there pages.....

nice cheap monitors.... pain in the butt to...

IMO

Are you using the Microsoft supplied Drivers?

There's no type pf identification on the back of the monitor? anything that looks like it can be googled?

Well the problem is its an emachines monitor so im not sure what company actually made it. I forgot about the back of the monitor *bangs head off wall*, its called a eView 17f. I googled it and im getting nothing. Is this a bad monitor? Should i get an upgrade? I play a lot of games, and my system is decent for a gaming rig, IMO

.

And to answer your question about the microsoft drivers, i honostly dont know, i installed it a while back, i dont have a disk or anything for it i just plugged and played so im guessing im using microsofts.

if it came from a emachine.... your looking at either a completely refurbished model or a model that KDS didn't even make but has all the KDS manufactured parts....

If you have the orginal E-Machine name and model.. try and do a search on it and see if they have a reffence drive referal...
