Lenovo T500 + VGA output = 1920 by 1080 not possible?
I have a 42 inch Sharp LCD TV, and a Lenovo T500 laptop running windows 7 as my main OS. I use VGA to connect to my TV. Any attempt to display 1920 by 1080 on my TV results in my TV telling me to switch to 1600 by 1200 because the video mode is not supported. 1920 by 1080 works fine on windows XP, same machine, same TV.
Games would not run well at 1920 by 1080, so I've ignored it up till now (because I tried several times and cannot get it to work). I like 1920 by 1080 for writing code though. Any way to fix this?
video card:
ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650
Switchable graphics is currently disabled.
Windows 7 version: release candidate (it's free) (32 bit, yay for unused RAM)
