From: GaryR on 28 Jan 2008 14:34 I've been trying to get Vista 32 drivers for my P225fb 22" CRT for a while now. The drivers on Viewsonics site are porked. The "Signed" driver set, which are for ALL Viewsonic CRT's and LCD's, have only their latest equipment listed ("V" series). The UN-Signed drivers have more but give me an error when I try to install the P225fb-4 set. Both must be done manually, which is dumb in and by itself. I have disabled the Signed Driver check at boot and the Windows error is that there is a file problem. Looking in C:\Viewsonic I see no P225fb-4.inf file, just and ICM file. This REALLY shouldn't be so friggin difficult! Anyone know a workaround? Thanks.

What do you want it to do that it won't do without the so-called "driver"? -- -- --John to email, dial "usenet" and validate (was jclarke at eye bee em dot net)

I want to install the Viewsonic P225fb drivers for Vista, that's really all you need to know. Now how can you help me achieve this goal? If WHY is your response, it's simple. Go back to sentence #1. |
