"-Okay,

---Just installed this monitor on a new 32-bit XP Professional w/SP3 system. If you can't get it to work then you need to take your system to a qualified person. This is as simple as installing a driver update on Windows 3.1. Come on now!

FURTHER ASSISTANCE (`cause I know some* are new to PCs):

1) Save file to any directory

2) UNZIP/extract files from the container(again, there is no EXEcutable file!)

a) Extract the INF file to your desktop for now (can be deleted when done, Windows will create a copy).

b) *_IF_YOU_HAVE_THE_eView17_*, Search %SystemRoot% for "*.ICM" (without quotes) and extract ICM to the directory in which you find your ICM files (unzip to "C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\drivers\color" [without quotes] for XP).

3) Open Device Manager/Hardware Manager/Computer Management|Device Manager

4) Right click on Plug and Play Monitor or whatever you have listed.

5) Select "Update Driver" and walk through the next windows:

a) No not this time | OK

b) Install from a list or specific location | OK

c) Don't search, I will choose the driver to install | OK

d) Select "Have Disk" and direct windows to your Desktop and click on Monitor.INF | OK

e) Choose your monitor from the four given (Model is on sticker on the back of your monitor)

f) "... does not pass windows logo certification... " because it is an obsolete monitor. The files are from eMachine, so it's your choice. Either click "Continue anyway" or go out and buy a new monitor that is supported.

4) Go to the directory where your ICM files are stored (again, "C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\drivers\color" [without quotes] for XP)

5) Right click the ICM file (*_IF_YOU_HAVE_THE_eView17_*) and select "Install Profile"

6) You're done.

---I will try and find the ICM files for the eView 14, 15 & 15s, add them to a ZIP with these files and change my UL for you. Until then, if you find an ICM for those 3 monitors, please contact me and I will gladly accept yours and add it to the container after scanning it.

---FWIW, creating an EXEcutable file is left to the wannabe hackers. If you click on any EXE file expecting someone to walk through your system for you, you're foolish. An executable file can trash your system prior to you complaining to the site you got the file from. Before you start clicking on files, try teh manufacturer's site for the drivers, then the component manufacturer's site, then a diver site.

---Again, here are the driver files for the eView (and the ICM for the eView17), for you to install on your own using the explanation above... if you don't already know how."

"---The monitor is said to be Plug and Play and drivers are not needed. However, if you are like me and want to use component specific drivers, then this will work. Windows says it is not certified, but they also say that about my nVidia GeForce 7600GT OC, where the 7600 GT drivers work fine.

---FWIW, my OS crashed and I thought I had lost these drivers. I couldn't find them here again either. After 15 minutes with eMachine's live support and them telling em the drivers were not available, and would not work with my nVidia, I explained I had used them before and it worked fine for 2 years. Low and behold I found them on backup HDD and I uploaded them, zipped, along with the Users Guide PDFs from eMachine's site. THEN* I find the drivers on this site again.

---Thanks for the UL that gave me the drivers in the first place. Now if MS would just stop acting a fool and certify all hardware and software that is available, we'd be doing great."

"A pesar de calificar como bueno al controlador, éste no funciona con el sistema operativo vista bussines o por lo menos no permite su instalación debido a que por default asigna un monitor pnp y aunque lo desinstalo no me admite el controlador que funciona bien en xp."
