I also tried unpluggin the monitor and uninstalling it from the device manager.
My Windows is all up to date, and none of my other drivers need updates, I used driver booster to check that to. I'm currently running dual monitors, and I have an old dell that's being recognized in the device manager, which I think is odd, since the better monitor is not. The vg248 monitor doesn't have drivers that I can download from ASUS website, so until I can solve this I'm stuck with the 2006 drivers that only allow me to run a 60 hz pnp monitor. I read online that the graphics card drivers should make the monitor recognizable, but it's not. I have updated my graphics card drivers, I even used a tool to remove all drivers before reinstalling them. In any case, my device manager refuses to download the appropriate drivers (still using the default ones from 2006). I am using an HDMI cable, but the vg248 is 144hz compatible with it and my 1660 super nvidia card. This is the quickest and easiest way to set the best optimal settings based upon your own hardware for a balance of highest quality and performance your system can manage.How can I force my pc to recognize the vg248 144 hz monitor I have installed and to stop referring to it as a PnP 60 hz monitor?Ĭurrently the device manager refers to it as a pnp monitor, and the nvidia control panel only allows 60 hz in both the ultra HD and PC settings. Then under the 'Games' tab, apply optimal settings to each game. Now go back under 'GeForce Experience' > Perferences > Games > Add new locations for your games if required, such as the Steam directory, and 'Check Now' to scan for them. Under 'Stereoscopic 3D', disable it for now if you don't have the glasses, not a very good compatible game for 3D or simple don't wish to use. This is to ensure you haven't overwritten any optimal in-game settings. Under 'Manage 3D settings', click 'Restore' defaults on the Global Settings. Under 'Adjust image settings', ensure it's set to 'Let the 3D application decide'.
If it's not already - under 'Change Resolution', set to 1920x1080 (native), color depth at highest (32-bit) and refresh rate at 144Hz. Rock up to Nvidia Drivers or use GeForce Experience Software (which offers the drivers as well):ĭownload that, clean install all the drivers (tick them ensuring you have the latest 3D Vision, etc). The following settings were used to create the profiles but feel free to adjust if necessary -īrightness= 24 (gave 160 cd/m2 on our unit, adjust as required) Set the monitor to ‘Standard Mode’ at 144Hz. I believe using CTRL+T in games is also a shortcut to switch 3D mode on and off, but can cause slowdowns during the driver toggle. Perhaps purchase NVIDIA 3D Vision 2 glasses, if you have it running in 3D Mode? Else go into the Nvidia control panel, and uncheck 'Stereoscopic 3D'.
