driver cleaner pro will do a good job of completly removing them, do it 2 or 3 times just to make sure it gets everything.

My parents recently bought an Acer LCD and I was really impressed by all the extras that came with it. My experience with LCD monitors mostly comes from having them sent to me for work computers and usually they just come with an analog VGA cable but this Acer had a VGA, DVI and HDMI cable all included with it. After buying a laser printer last year that didn't even include the USB cable needed for it I thought this would be a dieing trend among companies but it's good to see it's not with Acer.

I found the same thing when I owned acer monitors, they came with VGA and DVI cables. My samsung 24" LCD's also came with both VGA and DVI cables. It was sweet since it meant I didn't have to dish out $30 for DVI cables.

My Acer P191w came with both VGA and DVI cables. It's really nice not to have to go fishing for them, spending even more money.
