I have new Samsung B2030 LCD Monitors and a fairly new HP Pavillion Elite HPE. I have dual monitors that work great, but now I need to have resolution 1280x1024 for a new application for work. I'm not able to change it higher than 1600x900 but my instructor has the same monitors and she's able to get the higher resolution.
1600X900 is a higher resolution than that of 1280X1024. Therefore 1600X900 is a better resolution. If you would like to run at the lower resolution simply right click your desktop screen and click properties. Then on the settings tab use the slider bar to adjust the resolution. Lower to the left and higher to the right. If the desired resolution is unavailable then you could try downloading and installing the latest drivers for your graphics card installed in your computer.
Your card will either be AMD/ATI Radeon or Nvidia. You will need the model number of the graphics card, the latest drivers may increase resolution support for your card.
Also look on the bottom right hand side of your screen for an Nvidia Control Panel logo in green. Right click it and select the option to "change screen resolution" This may provide you with additional resolution options.
Take care!
