David,
Thanks for the link.
I've already tried it but couldn't get windows to recognize the monitor.
GOOD NEWS!
I downloaded another driver file from some driver web site (don't
remember which one - I've been all over the place).
Inside a .cab file, which was inside another .cab file I found a .inf
and .icm file.
Windows took these and now recognizes the P244W as an analog monitor.
The gap on the right side has shrunk from about 1 inch to 1/4" - 3/8".
Not good, but certainly better than before.
The .icm file has provided a color pallet from Acer, but I've chosen
to stay with the sRGB Color Profile for compatibility with my photo
editing software.
If anyone has any interest in the .inf/.icm files I'm using just let
me know and I'll email them to you.
Thanks to everyone for their help and support.
Regards,
Mike Resnick

Chris,
Your last comment piqued my interest.
I booted up, went into bios and lo and behold the bios image filled
the screen.
No gap!
I guess the monitor is working fine hardware-wise.
I now have to figure out what windows doesn't like.
I wish I had that .inf file.
I hate windows!!!
Mike
