    Well, try the device manager.
    But if there aren't any problems can't really see why you'd bother.

    I don't know if there is another way to ID your screen. Maybe on the control panel of your GPU. Or somewhere in the hardware list. Maybe if you'd search the forum.

    You can also check on your Dell account page under systems and peripherals by entering your service tag number and pulling up original configuration.
