I checked and I do have an HDMI data block in the extension block (screenshot: https://ibb.co/sbRYsqc ), and so I installed the patch and then redid the custom resolution and restarted the drivers, but it's still not giving me a higher resolution. Is there any other settings I might need to change? Or would it be helpful to post any other screenshots?

Hi benanna88, I have the exact problem:
short story: using hdmi to dvi adaptor (I also have a hdmi to dvi cable, but it is single link), both only give me 1680x1650. My HDMI should output 1080p, I tested it on another full HD monitor and works using HDMI.

long story: For whatever reason, I always get no signal in u2711's HDMI port. u2711 seems detects cable is plug in, but pop up a screen saying no signal from your computer blabla. So I tried a HDMI to DP to see if I can use the DP port, same problem and message. Now I am trying my last option, HDMI to DVI. result already mentioned above.

where do I find this extension block? I am using windows8.1 64 bit
laptop: HP ENVY dv6
Intel® Core™ i7-3630QM CPU @ 2.40GHz
graphics: Intel® HD Graphics 4000
NVIDIA GeForce GT 630M
I only have VGA and HDMI output ports, so HDMI is my only chance to get 2560 full res on u2711. Even 1080p will be fine.
Thanks
