LOL why does that not surprise me

It's just really annoying - i dont think ive ever had a good ICT teacher. I dont know if its because they HAVE to teach basic stuff or if its just because they suck - but my teacher confesses that he learns what he has to teach us the week before he teaches it! That is pretty poor.. it's even worse because he KNOWS im fairly good at computers and so he makes me go round and help other people whilst other people that have done their work get to have free time on the internet.. Grrr.

was same when i was at college teacher would look show us how to do it one way he would then walk about class watching us doing it our own way and they say "ive just thought of a new way to do it" then rip off what he seen us do

Monitor drivers are normally just color profiles, so EVEN a win95 driver should work for say XP or 2003...

 

[Tommie]

um where do i put that hitachi.inf file??..

Absolutely nowhere.
You just rightclick it, pick "install", and then pick the installed driver via control panel.

 

[Tommie]

so far, so good;your monitor is now properly detected;

....should i disable the ones that say default moniter??..

depends on your graphic card; if it has multi monitor support, it's quite usual to see additional virtual standard monitors listed;
