Drivers for SyncMaster 753DFX

Do you know where can I find the WinXP drivers for this monitor?
Whenever I try to download them from the Samsung site itself a mesagge appears telling me that the file is not found.

TIA

Nuclear Krusader,

I get the same error that you have mentioned. Try this link. It is in German or something but I think the driver should be the same. I have just downloaded it and it looks good so if you are having problems I could always just e-mail it to you. it looks like a 66k file.

It seems that page only has for 753DF not DFX so it could be different. Still looking will get back to you.

Here is another page and they do not show a 753DFX just a 753DF like the first link. I unzipped the executable and in the .inf file I can see references like this: 753DF(X)

So since these are different pages but give you the same driver. I guess you should check around or use it if you want. HTH

I copied and pasted it, but it times out so I guess you have to just take my word they are the same driver. Good luck

You shouldn't need it - you should be able to make all the adjustments you need to with whatever XP detects it as. Even "default monitor" in XP gives you all kinds of resolutions and refresh rates.

Well, last night out of desperation I used the Win2K driver. Of course XP gave its mesagge about "possible incompatibilities", but I continued anyway and so far is working good.

Thanks for your help, Edrod13 and glc.
