Monitor wrong one ?? windows 7 home 64 bit

hi guys the BIOS was updated last night to a 2011 version. The laptop monitor isnt connected to anything. maxie it had improved greatly the screen reso., however it was when i started loading stuff thats when i realized the probs, im in the midst of downloading all the drivers from Delluk and will put them on disc , then it looks like im going to have to start again hoping that the PNP monitor doesn't appear again :0( I can load pages etc no probs but its not working as it should be for example., couldnt play a game on the vga driver , not that i play them lol i cant load mass storage controller on the system the way it is either, i need to be rid of that monitor and work from LInda's pc , guess im in tonight lol

dont think ive much choice maxie , as cant get rid of that monitor, im downloading all the drivers from dell as we speak and will use them on a disc rather than the disc that came with it. I cant seem to find the correct order for the drivers to be loaded but im hunting lol

rofl ive not got any scotch but a wee dram of southern comfort will be coming my way lol na your right it wont take long, its getting the right ones i guess and put them on in right order, will be back to update you:0)

morning :0)
I had a post on the dell website so what i was missing was catalyst control centre, installed that, rebooted and now the PNP monitor has gone and its using Linda's PC , so no install today for me whoooooo lol This 17 inch screen is brill , thanks for being there for me, needed the support, my graphics driver is now up and running :0)

Glad you sorted that out. As I had said earlier, I was suspecting it was related to the GPU drivers. Thought you had them all installed. Grats for solving the issue.

im so happy, its running better than ever before, like a new laptop :0) Now to do a image back up as suggested, huge thanks to you both :0). Linda
