U2412M, DDM error, not supported

Question

Hi I'm using windows 7 on a desktop. my graphic card is Nvidia quadro FX580 (driver version 9.18.13.4195) I can see the display in the device manager it is unidentified as Dell U2412M (Display port) Dell Display manager (1.27.1792) doesn't identify the monitor. I get a balloon message saying that it requires supported Dell monitor. Older version of DDM didn't work either.  The display is connected through HDMI port on the graphic card. I've tried the DVI connection as well, but same result.  Only a single monitor is connected to the computer. DDC/CI on the monitor is enabled. Resolution I'm using is 1920 by 1200 @ 60Hz Thanks, Ariel

Unfortunately, the U2412M is not supported by the DDM (Dell Displays Manager). This was a web mistake on the "What is Dell Display Manager?" article. DDM requires a 2013 or newer Dell model year monitor. Notice that there is not a DDM User's Guide on the U2412M page:

I've just rechecked, and it does appear under U2412M downloads and drivers I guess that it got into there by mistake Thanks for the help Ariel
