RE: Custom Resolution Utility (CRU)
Hi. I read through this thread and did not see any posts detailing the same problem I am having and I'm wondering if CRU could fix this problem. I noticed for it to work the monitor must report a working EDID. I have a Westinghouse LCM 22w3 which normally is capable of 1680x1050. The problem is that the monitor is detected as an Acer AL1714 and my resolution is maxed at 1280x1024. My previous computer (which I used until last week) had this problem also but I was able to set up a custom resolution of 1680x1050 in Nvidia control panel. On this newly built PC I was using Intel HD 4600 graphics and couldn't find a way to set up a custom resolution. The funny thing with that is if I continually unplug and replug the VGA cable, eventually it will revert back to 1680x1050, but only until I reboot and then I'm capped at 1280x1024 again. I also had the problem with an HDMI to DVI cable, so I don't think its the VGA cable. Yesterday I installed a Powercolor Radeon HD 7870 XT Myst edition. I'm using the HDMI to DVI cable and again I'm capped at 1280x1024 with the monitor being detected as an Acer AL1714 and it appears custom resolutions can't be created from Catalyst Control Center. Thanks for any help.
EDIT: Also I forgot to mention that after playing with a few programs like Powerstrip and CRU a little last night, I now have another resolution option of 1920x1080, which I do not think my monitor supports. I never tried to get that resolution with any of the programs though. |
