I just recently reformated my hard drive, and now I wanna slap some new display drivers for my moniter. The only problem is that win2k just shows the moniter as "default moniter" so I cant change the driver, because the properties button is greyed out. I have IE 6 and SP 2 on here already if that helps any.

Try going through the Add and Remove Hardware wizard.

Find the drivers on the internet if you don't already have them and load the drivers for the monitor from disk. That is what I had to do with my Mag monitor.

o start->setting->control panel->system
o go to hardware tab
o look for 'device manager' button and click.
o look under Monitors and expand the tree, double click on default monitor
o the properties page of the monitor will pop up.
o go to driver tab
o click on 'driver update'
o 'Search for a suitable....' selected, click next.
o select and check the location where you have your driver. and click next.
o windows should copy and update the driver successfully if you have correct driver.
