Problem with HD3850 on Win 7 Ulti 32bit

[JesterCRO]

Hi, I have a problem.

I have Samsung SM T200 20' LCD monitor with max resolution 1680x1050 and I get that resolution on Win XP Pro, but when i try on Win 7 Ultimate 32bit, my graphic card gives me only 1440x900 and in-game for me it's a big diffrence( specialy if you are EVE Online player as me).I have latest Catalyst 9.11 drivers for Win 7 32bit. My monitor is on VGA because on DVI it only supports 1280x1024 (on Win XP).

Thank you.

Install the driver for the monitor and connect by DVI.

I did that, and now on Device Menager for monitor says "SyncMaster T200/T200G,SyncMaster Magic T200/T200G(Digital)" and the max resolution now is 1280x1024, on VGA with VGA drivers max resolution was 1440x900

Hrrrm..try a reboot if you haven't.

If not, try to use CCC to set res. If you already tried CCC, use Windows itself.

If not, then maybe you could possibly create the resolution or force it. I'm not sure for ATI, because I never needed it.

i can force that resolution on desktop by going on screen resolution>advanced Settings>list all modes, but i need 1680x1050 in-game, and there i can't force it.

Ah, there's your "problem." Actually, it isn't yours. It's the game then.

Sometimes if you Google the specific game, you can find ways to hack files so the game will allow you to set it like you want.

The specific game(s) itself should let you, but if it doesn't, it's the game's "problem."

Only other thing you can do is patch it to latest and cross your fingers.
