Re: Monitor Resolution Issue w/ Windows 7

Hi there,

 

I recently did a clean install of windows 7 64bit and when I hooked up my laptop (T400 - 6474 CTO) to my Samsung SyncMaster 2253bw I could not adjust the screen resolution to the monitor's native resolution of 1650x1050.

 

Windows only recognizes the monitor as a generic PnP monitor and the max resolution available for me to select is 1280x800.

 

I have used the advanced function to update my monitor drivers but I have a feeling I still don't have the right driver.  Samsung sent me to Lenovo - please help!

 

Thanks!

Re: Monitor Resolution Issue w/ Windows 7

did you reboot?

 

are you extending or mirroring laptop screen? try toggling back and forth. extending should give you full res but often mirroring does not...
