    Some monitors have "driver" disks, that at least make it so that the computer can recognize the model and populate the list of known resolutions for the given display correctly.
    That said, I didn't need to do it with Windows 7, so my model must be known to the OS or my Intel graphics driver.

    Yes, my Win7 recognised the make/model of my new Acer monitor, without using a disc.
    Move along, nothing to see.
