Dell Display 1908FPb Driver update

I received a notice from Dell support about a new video driver update for my Dell laptop.   The instructions reference a setup.exe file which does not exist in the installation package after the files are unzipped.   This is a fairly new update.   Has anyone else encountered the same issue?

In step 7) below, no setup.exe exists in the folder, only files 1908fp.cat, 1908FP.icm and 1908FP.inf are extracted.

 

Hard Drive Installation (via WinZip) with Setup.exe File for DELL_1908FPB---19-INCH-FLAT-_A00-00_R211147.EXE

Download

1.Click Download Now, to download the file.
2.When the File Download window appears, click Save (Windows XP
users will click Save) this program to disk and click OK. The Save In:

3.From the Save In: field, click the down arrow then click to
select Desktop and click Save. The file will download to your desktop.

icon appears on your desktop.

Install

1.Double-click the new icon on the desktop labeled DELL_1908FPB---19-INCH-FLAT-_A00-00_R211147.EXE.

unzip to C:\DELL\DRIVERS\R211147. Write down this path so the executable (I.e.

4.Click OK.

window is still open, close it.
