Go to www.hp.cdom and download the monitor inf files. Then
install them.

Hi Kyle,

It's probably the video adapter drivers that you need to locate and install.
You could possibly find the drivers at HP's Support & Drivers site:
http://welcome.hp.com/country/us/en/support.html

In Device Manager, what do you have listed for Display Adapter?

What is the make (I'm assuming HP, but correct me if I'm wrong) and model of
the computer system, not just the monitor?

You have to install the M/B drivers, the video drivers and the sound
drivers. Then you have to get all the Windows updates.
