How can I use a V223w monitor with Windows 7 OS?

Yes, this is an older monitor, but I used it with this Win 7 computer for years. Now that I have added a second monitor, it no longer works (screen is dark but just shows the Acer logo and says "No Signal".) In the screen resolution page, Windows shows it as "Generic Non-PNP" monitor, but the resolution box is grayed out  I searched for Win 7 driver for it, but only a Vista driver is available on the Acer website. 

Thank you.

    Good night LisaC117 !

    Acer only provides driver approved in this model for Windows Vista.
    If you remove the second monitor does it return to normal operation?
    Are you set to extended or duplicate screen?

    What port on your computer are you plugging it into? If you put the other monitor on that same port does it work?
