(Solved) hardware information of Monitor any tool available
jraju:
Hi,
speccy reveals the computer information (piriform).It shows the software details about the monitor.I want hardware details of monitor like the size of the monitor, and the make of it etc.
I found a code probably vb code in surfing the net. But, i do not know how to make tbis vb code to execute on my computer to get the details. If any readymade programs available, i would try
Shane:
Programs can only return information about the hardware based on how Windows reports it to them. So if Windows doesnt know the actual size of your monitor then no program will, normally windows will only know the model number of the monitor and the screen resolutions it supports.

Shane I understand that . But i have come across a vb script, which will show the monitor make and everything by vbcode. This has been given in a program language text. How to run that on my computer, i do not know. I even checked self check of monitor by disconnecting the video cable and then start on the monitor. I thought that it will let me know the default settings. But it only self check to show that monitor is powered and working.
I am having a lg monitor crt type. The drivers of video from Intel. Is there any hardware monitor diagnostic tool?
Shane:
Again, any program and script can only repair what windows tells it. I program in VB which is the same as vbscript. It might tell you the monitor info such as make and model but only the way windows sees it. It can return screen resolution and other things as well, again as windows reports it.
A lot of monitors dont even report their model to windows, they just show up as a generic monitor. But they will normally report what resolutions they support. Old crt monitors didnt do that very much. Didnt start becoming normal until the lcd monitors came out.
