However the display is compressed with about 1/4 of the right of the screen being black(the full 2560x1440 is compressed in the other 3/4 screen).

I have previously had a different laptop with Intel HD3000 driving the same monitor through VGA at2560x1440@29HZ without problems.

I've tried tweaking the various parameters but this does not seem to make any difference to the compression.

The Intel custom resolution utility produces exactly the same effect.

Are you saying EDID overrides work with Intel now? Why are you adding 29 Hz? VGA should be able to do 2560x1440 @ 60 Hz. What timing parameters did you try? Did you try the "LCD standard" and "LCD native" timing options? Did you try the same timing parameters with the Intel control panel? Does the monitor have clock/phase adjustments for VGA?

If the laptop has DisplayPort 1.2, you might have better luck using a DisplayPort hub to connect both monitors.
