"I'm using windows 2000. I read all the other comments below and figured "great, this driver won't work." So I haven't even actually downloaded the driver. I got this monitor for free and wanted to try it out. At first my display was crazy until I set the resolution to 640x480. Eventually I figured out how to get it to 600x800. In windows 2000 I used "add/remove hardware

"Katy, I got your address from driver.com.... I am having trouble finding a Monitor Driver for my Packard Bell 1401s.

"Kathy -- got your info from the Priority One Support site. I'm looking for a driver for a PB 1401s monitor. I downloaded the Moviemk.exe file but I get an error when I try to run it (WMMUTIL.DLL not found) -- is there really a 1401s driver in here? (there wasn't one in pbmon.exe) If yes, do you have any idea where I can find the wmmutil.dll file needed to run this?&quo
