It will still work, but everything will appear wider than it should. There is the possibility that the video built into your computer may only offer 4:3 screen ratios rather than the modern widescreen format that your ASUS monitor uses. So just plug your speakers into the back of your computer as you have always done and your sound will be the same as ever. Again, according to the specs, this monitor has an audio output but this requires that you connect it to your computer using HDMI or DVI - the VGA cable does not carry an audio signal.

Click on the right hand tab - I think it is called 'Advanced' - and again adjust the resolution to as near 1920 x 1080 as you can get it.Īs for the audio. If you are using XP, then again click on a blank piece of screen but select 'Settings' and a tabbed selection box appears. If it isn't set to 1920 x 1080 already, click on the box and choose that value, or the nearest you can get to it. In the middle of the screen that appears you will see a drop down box for screen resolution.

If you are using Win 7 - and I think it is the same for Vista - right click on a blank piece of screen then click on 'Screen resolution'. You don't say what operating system you are using but these are fairly easy to change. You don't need drivers for a monitor - they just plug in and play.Īccording to the specs from ASUS it has a VGA connection as well as HDMI and DVI so use the VGA cable you used to use for your old monitor to connect it.Īs far as the settings go, it is capable of 1920 x 1080 resolution, which is probably a lot higher than the settings you used with your previous monitor. Any advice or guidance you could give me would be appreciated more than you know. I have spent two weeks searching every place I can find on the internet and I need help. Also this computer has speakers that plug in to the computer and the monitor, ASUS told me if I used their monitor, I wouldn't have any sound.EVER! I can use the new monitor, but all of the settings are for my old monitor. I have tried contacting ASUS for help, but they had no idea what I was talking about and I became very frustrated with them. I have a brand new printer which I installed this way and downloaded necessary tools from the internet. When it arrived I set it up and plugged it into my computer, which then should have detected new hardware and promted me to install, but it did not. I just bought a new ASUS VS247H-P 24 inch monitor and would like to replace my old 14' in flat screen HP monitor with it. I have an HP Pavilion a510n that I bought in 2004 and have hardly used. I am a new member who really knows nothing about external hardware computer issues.
