U2415 limited to 800x600 in Windows7 - drivers won't install?

I just connected a new U2415 via DisplayPort<->DisplayPort. I am running Windows7x64 and using a GeForce GTX 750 Ti. When I power the monitor on, and then boot the computer everything is displayed in 800x600 resolution. Once inside Windows if I try and adjust the screen resolution the drop down is greyed out and reads 800x600.


In the device manager the driver for the monitor is "Generic PnP Monitor". I try and install the drivers that came with the monitor and/or the latest drivers downloaded off the Dell website by selecting update driver in the device manager and browsing to the appropriate folder and the I get the message:


"The best driver for your device is already installed. Windows has determined that the driver software for your device is up to date. Generic PnP Monitor"


If I run the Dell monitor driver installer it searches for monitors and reports:

"The following connected monitors have been detected:
        NVD Plug and Play Monitor - NVD0000

Drivers for the following monitors have been found:
        Dell U2415(HDMI1) - DELA0BA
        Dell U2415(HDMI2) - DELA0BC
        Dell U2415(DisplayPort) - DELA0B8
        Dell U2415(miniDisplayPort) - DELA0B9

Drivers for the following connected monitor can be installed:
        None

Please connect your monitor before running this program."


What else can I try?
