Windows 10: How to get Windows 10 to recognize a new monitor driver?

I have a Dell Optiplex 380, and I just installed a new Acer 202Q monitor. The resolution showing is 1024 x 768. The resolution on the monitor shows it goes up to 1600 x 900. I downloaded the Acer driver file, which consists of a .cat, .icm, and .inf file. When I went to the device manager and clicked on update driver, it could not find this file, even with a direct search. It kept on saying, "The best driver is already installed...." I even copied the .inf folder to system32\drivers and still it does not recognize the file. When I right clicked on the .icm and .inf files separate, it just sai

NEW Windows 10 install, not recognizing 2nd Monitor or setting correct resolution

I just installed a Windows 10 (Creator's Edition) on a NEW SSD to my HP xw4600 Workstation. Below are the problems I'm experiencing:

• The OS hasn't recognized the fact I have 2 monitors.
  • From Display Settings the Detect function can't
    find the 2nd monitor
  • Both monitors show same content

From the Device Manager I've removed Device and now it is showing Generic PnP Monitor
as Working Properly.

Additionally, neither screen is displaying at the proper resolution. Dell U2211H (1920 x 1080).

• Display Settings has the screen set to 1024 x 768
• The highest avaiable option is 1280 x 1024
• Advanced Display Settings is not listed as an option
• Cannot extend the desktop
• Windows + P indicates Your PC cannot project another PC try reinstalling the driver or using a different video card

The current card installed is a ATI FirePro V5600. After visiting the manufacturers website and not finding a driver listed for this card for Win10 I found a tool to remove the device, its driver, and all associated registry entries to let
Windows install it's Display Adapter which the Device Manager is now indicating is
Working Properly.

None of the steps of taken thus far has had a positive effect. I'm at a loss...what do I need to do to correct these issues?

Thank you.

 

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
