Try selecting 3007WFP on this Dell web page for whichever operating system you're using...

(No guarantees that they will do anything, of course!)

Nothing for my specific monitor under Windows 7. DLed the Vista 64 application and that is nothing more than a application to dim the brightness via the control panel alas (which I read on the original User manual).

Spoken to Dell who were as sharp as a marble.

Could it be the cable perhaps? I just got a five quid one from eBay. PCWorld were charging £25 for a Belkin that didnt look much better.

Yes, I was a bit suspicious when the size of the so-called driver download was 160kB or so!

SOLVED: Found a pre-opened DVI-D dual-link Belkin cable in PC RipoffWorld and lo and behold, it works. It was the cable I bought on eBay - bloody rubbish!
