Display settings for Acer H236HL

bhk12

My new Acer  23" widescreen monitor is working fine,   but I checked the resolution which is 1600x900.  (windows 7)

 

The Microsoft Help for display says it should be 1680x1050 for a 22" monitor, and 1900x120 for 24" LCD,   yet there is NOT an option on the sliding scale,  1600x900 is the highest.    Strangely  there is nothing for a 23" monitor.

 

   I am also using 32 bit color

It is showing the Intel graphics card (use with my laptop) and a generic monitor

I never adjusted anything when I plugged it it, assumed plug and play

 

Windows optional Update says new driver available, dated 2012,  my monitor was mfg in Jan 2015.

There are NO drivers on the CD that came with the monitor,  

 

Also, manual says press FUNCTION button to access options,   Which function button?  Hope I don't have to use the Unmarked buttons on the bottom of the monitor

 

input welcome

Thank you,

 

The highest possible in my Control panel is 1600 x 900

 

So there is NO function button onscreen to access the monitor controls?

No, they are located under the bezel (under the monitor). You should have a driver on the CD?

No Driver on the CD!!!

 

  just Manual,  Quick start guide,  and adobe reader Older version than what I already have!!

 

No mention of a Driver in the manual either

I've contacted another member about the driver. I wait his answer.
