    I'm not sure how you do it on Vista, but in XP you can go into Device Manager and show properties on the Plug and Play monitor and the model number will be in the device id. The more precise steps have been posted here about 100 times. Please post back the model you have when you find out.

    I've posted this info now like 5 times in different threads,
    log on to dell's support website,enter your service code(on the bottom of laptop)it will give you a detailed list of every component that was used in your particular laptop.Towards the bottom of the list it will show which part# and manufacturer's LCD Panel you got in your machine.
