iiyama AS4332UT drivers

Ramrod · 30-07-2005, 10:14

I must be thick or something........I'm trying to update my moniters drivers (LCD iiyama AS4332UT) so I went to the iiyama uk website, to the correct page and downloaded the driver pack. Can I find the correct driver in it? No! Am I doing something wrong or just being thick?

......and before anyone asks.........I'm doing this to see if it stops my PC's occasional bluescreen--the moniter and soundcard are the only things carried over from my old PC which exibited the same bluescreens.

http://members.driverguide.com/drive...riverid=317088 ? How are you looking for the drivers?
According to this
http://www.iiyama.co.uk/pages/conten...V=241&DOC=7114
you should just download it and then tell Windows to update the drivers. Are trying to force it to do it manually?

If I just ask windows to search for a better driver it can't find one

.....and I can't find a driver for my monitor in the driver pack that I downloaded from iiyama

Yup......the problem is that the as4332ut driver doesn't appear to be in the pack

..ie step 17 above cannot be carried out

Have you tried the drivers here?

Seems strange that they missed that model in the official pack

Did you try letting it search in that driver pack automatically instead of looking for it yourself?

You don't get the option to do that.......you can only click 'next' (on the install) when you have selected a driver in the pack......

Thanks for that.............are the .ICM files the drivers?

Paul K · 30-07-2005, 11:28

Think they are the calibration files for settings on the monitor itself.
Oh and I meant that at stage 11 don't tell it not to search, tell it to search and point it at the location you have extracted the zip file to.

If I do that it wants me to guide it manually down the 'tree' right to a driver file

Paul K · 30-07-2005, 12:01

At stage 10 have you tried letting it find the drivers itself?

I think I have tried all the permutations possible

Ramrod, does windows not detect the monitor as a "Plug & Play" ??

It does report it as plug and play.......

Graham M · 30-07-2005, 12:55

Then those are the same drivers as 99% of other people use for their monitors and shouldn't be posing any problems, especially as they are Windows' own drivers that tailor themselves for your particular monitor, you could always try the Generic <Insert Resolution Here> TFT drivers. But they'd probably be less stable than the plug and play ones.

Hmmmmm...............in that case I'll have a look at the sound card drivers........tnx all
