    I did a clean install of Windows 7 because I couldn't get SP1 to work with the OEM version. Could someone with a G73JH (not using an external monitor) check what is listed in Device Manager for the monitor? It is using Generic PnP Monitor and I never looked at what was there before reinstalling.

    Thanks for the feedback. Things appear a bit different from before I reinstalled, but I guess the monitor driver is not related.

    Text seems really small at 1920x1080 and the icons on the desktop look spaced further apart than I remember. There is an option in Display you can set to smaller, medium, or larger. That doesn't change the size of all text though. Maybe I'm just imagining things.
