Samsung SyncMaster 2243NW resolution problem

[isacdan]

Hi.
I'm using Windows 7 RC Build 7100.
I have a HIS ATI Radeon HD 4770 graphics card and a Samsung SyncMaster 2243NW monitor (native resolution of 1680x1050 @ 60 Hz) and I can't choose resolutions higher than 1600x1200.
I've installed the latest ATI driver but I can't find a Win7 driver for my monitor... Any solutions?

Thanks...

hi isacdan and welcome to sevenforums,

if you can find a vista one at the samsung website, go for that.

but be careful with windows update - it updated my samsung monitor profile with a buggy update.

I've installed the latest driver from the Samsung website... Still nothing...

What connection are you using? VGA, DVI?

What does it say in the Device Manager on your PC under, Monitors. As this pic.

 

[isacdan]

I am using a VGA connection.

In the Device Manager it says "SyncMaster 2243NW/2243NWX"... Looks like it's properly installed. :-??

Yes but you need to fix the two things in your Other Devices Folder.

Double click the first one with the yellow ex mark on it. Pick the driver tab /Update the driver /Search Automatically.

 

[isacdan]

I can't find drivers for neither one of them...

Multimedia audio controller driver windows 7 free download

Dowload this one first, and we will see if it works, then we will work on the second one.

 

[isacdan]

It didn't work... sorry.

 

[jfar]

What didn't work?

http://en.softonic.com/s/multimedia-audio-controller-driver-windows-7The Multimedia audio controller driver didn't do anything... the Multimedia Controller and the Multimedia Video Controller in the Other Devices tab still have those exclamation marks next to them.

Download and save the Driver on to the desktop, it’s handier to find it there, double click on the file folder, and when the window opens, right click on the file, and click Properties, you will see
Compatibility Mode. Then install the Driver by selecting Vista

I guesss he dosen't care ya think?

 

[isacdan]

I ran it in compatibility mode but it still didn't work. Everything is the same...

 

[jfar]

Ok go back to Device manager, and update driver from there, this time choose
Browse my computer for driver software. Browse / and then choose the Desktop.

 

[isacdan]

It says that it didn't find any drivers.
Anyway, those 2 things in Other Devices are my old, uninstalled TV Tuner (which I don't plan to use)...

 

[jfar]

Ok try this, just type in Dxdiag into the Start / Start search and programs, and click on Dxdiag,

It should tell you if you are having any issues with display / sound, I hope this helps

 

[isacdan]

No... There are no problems whatsoever... It seems that my system is working fine...
