Solve LCD compatibility faults under Vista

Many mainstream LCD monitors have passed Vista certification, but many early LCD monitors have compatibility problems. The author is ViewSonic LCD monitor, which works normally under Windows XP, but after upgrading Vista system, the edge of the screen appears subtle. The flickering phenomenon, the author still returns to the factory mode by adjusting the setting menu, although it does not affect the normal use, it always seems uncomfortable.

After careful inspection, it is found that under the "monitor settings" of the display properties, the screen refresh rate is up to 59Hz, and it is not adjustable, but the standard refresh rate of the LCD monitor is 60Hz, which was originally thought to be a graphics card. The driver problem, the author upgraded the Vista version of the graphics card driver is also true. The author enters the “Device Manager” to view, the system recognizes the display as “Plug and Play Monitor”. The author downloads the monitor driver from the official website of ViewSonic. After installation, Vista can recognize the display model normally, and the screen refresh frequency is also displayed as 60Hz. (Fig. 1), the fault that the screen shows abnormality is also solved.

mounted drive an LCD display, not only compatible address some failures, but also for liquid crystal display having a special function, though not install the driver It does not affect the normal display, but some additional functions cannot be used. For example, many LCD monitors have a built-in USB interface, which can read the data of the USB device or output the image through the USB interface, but the monitor driver must be installed to use it, because the interface program needs Drive matching with the Vista system. With the monitor driver, the corresponding setting function is also provided in the display settings panel.

For some older LCD monitors or miscellaneous LCD monitors, when users encounter similar faults and can't find the monitor driver, then they will not use the Vista system. In fact, there are still some solutions. For example, use the Refreshforce tool (download address: http://www.shudoo.com/bzsoft) to customize the screen refresh rate, click the "Add Mode" button after running the software, and then set the "Freguency" refresh rate to 60 or higher. (Figure 2), and set the display resolution (X is the width, Y is the height), click the "Apply" button to take effect, but this is only valid for the game and software running window, can not solve the LCD screen flicker failure.
