Yeah man! It worked, like a miracle
With 137 didn't, but with 136 did. I just added the 'CEA-861' extension block with the parameters you provided, restart.exe, and then wallah - it appeared in my Modes List available to select.
God bless you
Hi
I have an issue with some software which is caused by the order in which the PC is booted up and the TV turned on.
System Info:
Windows 10 Pro running nVidia GT710
Random brand 1080p TV
Connection to TV via HDMI.
The PC is connected to the TV via HDMI, the PC is set to autostart on power on so in a morning when the mains gets switched on the PC fires up, boots Windows, runs the software.
Basically the software requires the resolution of the display to be defined in an argument, i.e
startapp.exe -h1920 -v1080 r60
The problem I have is that if the TV is not turned on, Windows is defaulting to say 1024x768 and the app crashes because the resolution of Windows is not the same as specified in the argument. Once the TV is turned on then restarting the PC or restarting the app once Windows has detected the TV and set the proper resolution resolves the issue but it isn't ideal as the PC is usually hidden away.
If we were using nVidia Quadro cards then it wouldn't be an issue as I could use the nVidia control panel to generate an EDID data file from the TV info and tell the driver to load the EDID data from a file instead of polling HDMI but sadly we're running GT 710s.
Is this something the CRU application can solve by say removing all but 1080p from the list of available resolutions so Windows only has one option or would the issue still exist?
Annoyingly enough it has never been an issue on VGA or Display Port.
Many thanks for any advice.
Thanks for this awesome CRU apps.
Because of you, now I am able to run 2560x1080 @ 95hz instead of 75hz in my LG 34UC69G using my laptop only HDMI 1.4 port.
I am very happy now at least it is not that waste since this monitor is capable of 144hz but due to I don't have Display Port. At least now it is closed to 100hz and not only 75hz.

CRU only deals with connected monitors. Your TV is disconnecting when turning off. This issue is also common with DisplayPort monitors. I'm not sure how to set the resolution when no monitor is connected. The only solution I know is to use an EDID emulator like this:

I would like to use my Asus MX299Q monitor in its native resolution (2560x1080@60Hz) with an old HD4650 AGP graphic card connected with HDMI-HDMI cable. Could someone help me how and what settings need to be applied in CRU?
The OS is Win7 32 bit. I use the v12.1 AGP hotfix Catalyst driver.
If I connect the graphic card to the monitor with a DVI-DVI cable I can set the 2560x1080 resolution both in window opening right click on desktop / screen resolution and AMD Vison Control Panel. The latter also tells me that monitor is connected with dual link DVI cable
If I use HDMI-HDMI cable I can set only 1920x1080 resolution!
As per my specification of my graphic card (
https://www.gigabyte.com/Graphics-Card/GV-R465D2-1GI#sp) its max resolution is 2560x1600 in case of digital outputs like HDM & DVI. Furthermore I investigated that the version of graphic card HDMI connector is 1.3a thus even 2560x1440@75Hz resolution should be possible.
I also learnt from 1st post of this forum that old Radeon cards (like HD4650 is) HDMI is clocked only on 165 MHz which limits the output bandwith unless driver is pacthed. Of course I did the patch with AMD Pixel Clock Patcher which was successful, but I am still not able to set 2560x1080 nor in desktop/screen resolution neither in AMD Vision Control Panel
(.
The max available resolution is still only 1920x1080 despite the successful patch.
Earlier I used this monitor with HDMI-HDMI cable connected to the HDMI port of Llano system (which has HD6550d GPU integrated into the APU), so I am sure that monitor can be used in 2560x1080 resolution with HDMI cable.
Could someone assist me what should be set in CRU to make available the 2560x1080 resolution?

I've got my settings shown in the attachment, and wanted to know if I need to set up the resolution in both the main window and the block window as I've done here. I occasionally still have the problem of waking up my laptop and finding that the resolution on my large external monitor has reverted to the bad default, and I have to run restart64.exe.
I could delete the resolution from the main window, but I don't want to mess up anything.
You need the resolution in the main window. You don't need it in the extension block. Losing the override after waking up from sleep would be a driver bug that Intel would have to fix.
Thanks. Is there any permanent way to resolve this issue? I have a Dell XPS 15 so I've got a Thunderbolt 3, two USB3.0, and one HDMI port. My external monitor is a Dell U2711 so I've got these inputs:
2 x dual-link DVI with HDCP
HDMI w/HDCP
DisplayPort w/HDCP
VGA

Thunderbolt should be able to act as DisplayPort, so you should be able to use a USB-C to DisplayPort cable on the Thunderbolt 3 port to get the full resolution without dealing with custom resolutions.

If DVI works, why not use that? I don't have a way to make HDMI go beyond 165 MHz pixel clock with 4000-series GPUs. The patch is meant for 5000-series GPUs and newer.

Hi ToastyX,
Because there is no audio passthrough on DVI
If I connect with DVI-DVI cable I can select only analog sound input in the menu of my monitor.
Are you absolutely sure that it is impossible to use higher than 1920x1080 resolution via HDMI port of a HD4000 series graphic card? It is highlighetd on the box of my graphic card that it card has 1.3a version HDMI connector. As per table found
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HDMI HDMI ver 1.3a can support 2560x1440 resolution.
Will I be so unlucky that despite the built in HDMI 1.3a version connector resolution maximum of my HD4000 series card is only 1920x1080 on HDMI because of some hardware limitations, irrespective the card is able to send out above full HD resolutions on DVI?
If yes, than my last chance is to obtain a cable with dual link DVI connector on the one side and HDMI on the other side, connect DVI to the card, HDMI to the monitor and hope that card is able to serve audio signal on DVI too not only in HDMI.
Or an adapter like
this
Do you think it is worth to try?
p.s. After running your AMD/ATI Pixel Clock Patcher utility it posts that limitations have been sucessfully patched. Despite the succesfull patch the pixel clock remains on 165 MHz because it is a HD4000 series card which is not able to use higher pixel clock?
Hi,
I overclocked my G2460PQU to 160Hz fairly easily, but I noticed that the colours, particularly the greys (looks kinda green), don't look as good. It turns out that running my monitor at 160Hz locks the Color Depth to 6 bpc. At 144Hz, I get 8 bpc, and the greys look much better.
Is this a consequence of running 160Hz?
Is there a way to get 8 bpc on 160Hz?
Thanks
