I bought a V193 monitor in 2008. I didn't use it anymore the last few years. Now I would like to use it again as a second monitor, but I can't find a driver for it on internet.
Can you help me please?

Serial Nr: ETLBZ************
SNID: 83************

    Shouldnt really need a driver as its signal side rather than monitor side,  whats not working on it :)?

    It is connected with the PC, and has power but Windows does not recognize it. It cannot be detected by Nvidia software either.



    What do you mean when you say: "signal side rather than monitor side" ?

    Thanks

    VGA is an old enough interface that it doesn't pass information about the attached monitor back to the computer. That is likely why it's not being seen by the NVIDIA software. Does your NVIDIA GPU have a VGA port on it, or are you using an adapter to get the VGA signal?

    Attached to the VGA port on the motherboard, the screen remained black. Now, I have attached the cable with a Displayport to VGA adapter to the GPU, and it works fine. No need for a driver anymore. Thanks

    Ah, onboard ports are likely disabled when the GPU is installed. That's the case with Acer systems anyway.
