    I'm running M17xR3 with NVidia GeForce GTX 460M.

    Was browsing video settings and noticed that for Display Monitor the driver reads "Generic PnP Monitor" and date on the driver is 2006. Is also configured for screen refresh rate of 60 Hertz.

    Is this normal, anyone showing different?

    This is how it configured for me OOB.
