Ati 9600, maximum resolution?
Hi,
I have an ATi 9600 running with an Acer AL1914 LCD (19") Flat Panel. I have just installed the drivers for this card (Catalyst) and Hydrovision and it s reporting that my monitor supports resolutions much higher than I thought is did. As I understand it, this monitors maximum resolution is 1280 x 1024, but according the ATi cntrol center, I have higher resolutions available to me. Am I likely to cause damage to the monitor by trying out these higher resolutions as the monitor manual suggests that the max resolution is 1280x1024. I would apprecaite any comments. I guess I should mention that before now I have just let windows sort the graphics driver and the maximum resolution it gave me was 1280x1024, the same resolution said to be max in the monitor manual.. I woud appreciate comments from anyone with more experience.... Thanks a lot |

Right click desktop
properties, advanced click monitor tab under the screen mhz should be a box that says "hide modes that this monitor can not display" check the box take a look again at the screen resolutions available to you.

Thanks a lot I have the 17" version of your monitor, AL1714, and a Nvidia card, but worry not, If you set a higher than native resolution or refresh rate, the Acer reverts back to 1280*1024 automatically.
