Default Re: Resolution Question

my guess is that it's the monitor actually that just doesn't go that high.
obviously it needs to have enough pixels to be able to support 1600x1200.

It is possible that the computer is giving you the option of 1600x1200 even though the monitor doesn't support it.

I had this happen on my old laptop all the time.
I would have the option to set it to 1600x1200...even though it's max-res was 1400x1050.


So...you need to KNOW that this monitor can actually DO 1600x1200 before blaming it on the computer.

I see no stickers or anything else on the outside of the computer stating my max resolution.

He told you to look at the monitor...not the computer.


What kind of monitor is it? If there's no sticker perhaps you can just look up the model on the internet and find it's resolution capabilities.
