First, here’s the driver for your flat panel:
The resolution you are capable of achieving/seeing is dependent upon two things: A) the resolution that the display itself is capable of, and B) the resolution that your graphics card or chip is capable of.
If you have the monitor displayed to a laptop, you’re definitely using a graphics chip. If a desktop.....either a chip or a board.
To find out what you have for a “graphics engine”, do this:
If you see “Computer” on your Windows desktop, right click on it, select “Manage”. If you don’t see “Computer” (used to be called “My Computer” in Win2K and WinXP), then click on the Start button; look in the right hand column and you’ll see it....do the same thing.
Once the “Computer Management” box comes up, in the far left column, click on “Device Manager”. To the right of that column, you will see a listing of all your computer’s devices.
Look for “Display Adapters”. You will see a “+” sign to the left of the words “Display Adapters”....click on that. You will see what graphics card/chip that you have. You can right click on that, select “Update Driver Software”.
If you have the latest driver installed on your system, it will do just that....update to the latest.
Sigh....should obviously read:
If you have the monitor connected to a laptop, you’re definitely using a graphics chip.
Stupid fingers.
