Thanks. My monitor is an Acer V771, and in Mandrake Control Centre it is set as 'Plug'n Play ()'. It can't be found in the list which is under the 'Vendor' item, and when I choose any model from that list the problems remains: the screen is never filled up by the image. The same happens when I select any choice of the 'Generic' item. There is the 'Custom' item left. But I don't know what the 'refresh rate' means, and there the user is alerted that changing those rates can run the risk of damaging the screen, so I don't know what to do. Any other hint? Rodolfo
