Who manufactures your monitor and video card. check with both those manufacturers for updated Win2000 drivers.

The Dell Dimension is not a laptop? I don't think Dell can help you with drivers for an external monitor they did not provide. If it is a Dell monitor, then go ahead and call Dell.

Does your computer have onboard video or does it have a separete video card? If it has onboard video try to go to the manufaturer of the video chipset. Many times they have a generic driver. If you have a separete video card, try to go to drivers.com you will likely find a driver there. Or you may do a fcc id search to find out whom made your card. www.fcc.gov
Good Luck ;)

By doing a search on Dell's site for that computer, it looks like you have a built in video card, with either the Intel 810 or 815 chipset, both drivers are listed for Win2k. Go to www.dell.com, choose support, enter the model of computer or the service tag number, and it will allow you to get the proper driver. It is very seldom that the monitor driver is actually the problem, it is usually the video card driver. You can also try to set the desktop to Web page display, as the video card will then be able to use more ram to display with than the base amount that the bios is set to.
Good Luck,
