Hi, Thanks for the tip, was able to get my display running to a point. I followed your steps and all went well until I got to the point for updating the EDID. The new version isn’t asking me for the new file eeprom that I customized, and now I’m kinda stuck. My display currently views at 1280X1024 but can’t go higher as my windows 7 is detecting it as a generic non Pnp even after searching the net automatically. I’m unable to modify it to reset it back to its native 1600X1080 resolution. Any help would be appreciated.

Most of this worked fine for me. I did not user PowerStrip to flash the port with a ‘fixed’ edid. DDCW is able to do this (From dos bootdisk). One thing to note with this is to make sure you flash the right port, or you can make your working VGA also dead (though you can fix it blind). Compare the output of `ddcw -m #` before doing anything. The help states #=0 and #=1 are VGA and DVI, respectively, but compare the output to be sure (#=1 was VGA for me, and #=2 DVI). Second row, fifth column I think is where the input is defined, “80” for Digital.

Unfortunately I have a crappy Ritmo switching unit between my monitor and PC, so the EDID behaviour is hard to diagnose, let alone repair. Since I’m going to use different monitors with the device, I’d prefer to just ‘force’ a particular graphics mode that I know the current monitor can achieve, rather than changing and flash RAM in the sharing device (KVM). Is there a way of saving EDID information obtained from when the monitor is plugged in *directly* to the PC, and then convincing Windows (Vista, in my case) to use this file when the monitor is connected via the KVM? What would you recommend to simply ‘force’ a desired video mode? Thanks for this article, I just wanted to share my experience with this problem (I have a 2025wm and a 8600GT running on XP SP3).

I was trying to set up dual monitors when the problem occurred. Farida Khanum Album Free Mp3 Download. I ditched the dual monitors and tried to go back to the single 2025, but the resolution was crazy and I found myself having scroll around a huge ‘virtual’ desktop. I tried all the unplugging/resetting, EDID reset bootdisks, NVidia driver updates/downgrades etc, but nothing worked. I finally found this site and tried the PowerStrip technique, using your EDID, and clicked “no” when prompted to fix a corrupt EDID. But the screen went totally white and the PC seemed to have crashed. By this point I thought I’d fcked it totally, but I gave it one more shot, this time choosing to fix the corrupt EDID when prompted by PowerStrip. And guess what, IT WORKED!

So to anyone else out there, give that option a try. Thanks for the article Komeil, I have my problem with VX Viesonic 2025wm DVI since build my new PC (and Graphic card from Nvidia 8800GT to ATI 5770) no signal on the screen till system boots up and after that I can see just 1/4 of the screen and by moving the mouse to the sides or top and bottom of the screen to see rest. I tried all the tricks and nothing. I tried to download your EDID files but I got a message “This item might not exist or is no longer available”. How can I download your VX 2025 wm files?

Could You email them please 🙂. I have an LG w2252tq and I’m not sure if the DVI’s EDID is corrupted or what. I tried plugging it to our PS3 using a HDMI to DVI cable and the PS3 could not recognize it (black screen for a few seconds then screen comes back on AV cables, had both plugged at the same time).

I tried every single trick to make it work but no dice. I know it should work since the monitor is HDCP compliant and I’ve seen hundreds of other people post PS3 setups with the same monitor using an HDMI to DVI cable or adapter for at least 720p output.

I’m think the EDID is messed up because the only resolutions I get in windows are 800×600, 1024×768 and 1280×720. I also get no screen during POST and the windows loading screen. I tried powerstrip and it says that it can find an EDID EEPROM after scanning. Might be because I’m using a gtx 275, so I’ll try again using my 6600 on an old pc. I’ll try flashing in the VGA EDID converted to digital, hopefully things get better if it works. Shiv Aradhna Mp3 Songs Download. Both DVI and HDMI carry data in their TMDS (transition-minimized differential signaling) channel, with the DVI carrying no audio.

Being mostly compatible with each other, you can connect your graphics accelerator to the monitor using HDMI-to-DVI (DVI-DL, or dual link, for high-resolution monitors, with all 24 digital pins present on the DVI connector). I cannot predict what happens if you use the HDMI on the GeForce GT 240 using HDMI-to-DVI-DL, but I think chance of not working (acting the same as the DVI) is more, because I think something is wrong with the monitor, not the VGA. It’s really complicated, because the DVI connector includes pins for the display data channel (DDC / DDC2, a newer version of DDC) that allows the graphics adapter to read the monitor’s EDID (extended display identification data). If a display supports both analog and digital signals in one input, each input can host a distinct EDID. If both receivers are active, analog EDID is used. I have a RCA LCD HDTV 42′ as my monitor, RCA does not offer drivers so it only comes up as Generic PnP Monitor:(, I just got a new(er) vid card ATI HD 3650 and the proper drivers installed but cannot get resolution higher than 1024×768, i spoke to ATI tech they said it’s the driver for the TV, spoke to RCA tech they said they don;t offer drivers so it’s the microsoft driver. I run vista 32bit, and it’s an AGP card, my older card PCI9 yep not pci-e) 256 radeon 9800 runs the resolution at nearly twice this better card is allowing me.

Any ideas how to reset/replace/repair the EDID for my problem?
