    Smart TV getting recognised as Generic PnP Monitor


    I have a non big brand 4k 60hz refresh rate 55" smart tv attached as 1 of 4 monitors. The PC recognizes it as a generic PnP monitor with a 2006 driver version. I have tried to update drivers to no avail, have also tried the step of selecting a driver from the windows list but don't know which to pick for a non branded 4k tv. I have put the TV in pc mode as well.


    Every time i restart/shut down and start the pc, the display, Win10 Pro starts up with the tv at 24hz. I have to physically unplug and plug the HDMI cable back in and then it recognizes it as a 60hz 4k panel.


    I wanted to ask, is this being caused by Windows logging it as a generic pnp monitor? which other driver can i choose from the list which will closely align to my 4k 60hz tv?


    Kind Regards

    :)

    Generic PNP monitor

    Hello,

    I use a CAD program that apparently has a problem with my ASUS 4K monitor. Seems I've tried every which way to get Window to recognize my monitor but, all I get is . . generic PnP monitor with an old 2006 driver. I've downloaded the current monitor
    but, Windows won't use it.

    Gone through a number of help suggestions including disconnecting the monitor, reconnecting, re-starts, delete driver, re-install . . .llllllll

    Any advice would be most welcome.

    Thanks,

    Tom
