Parameter Incorrect means that some line of code used by the program attempts to go into effect and Windows will not allow it to go into effect. Possible causes are:
1. incorrect install path
2. access to certain windows files denied based on security settiings
3. program does not have full access to the registry
4. more...

Try installing thje driver when logged on as admin.

Also, why would you need a special driver for a CRT monitor? The default windows monitor.inf is all that you need.
No one has any right to force data on you
and command you to believe it or else.
If it is not true for you, it isn't true.

Not always true TonyT i use a specialized moniter.inf .... Why cause the one windows supplies does not fully support the frame refresh rates that my moniter can handle,,, unless of course you override the refresh rates... my drivers for the moniter also came with a color scheme so that my colors are crisper than with the windows default....windows default works but i like every thing attached to my PC to show up in my device manager like it is supposed to... all in preference i would say though....
