Hi,
our TV in the conference Room (Fujitsu-Siemens Myrica 16:9) has no .inf File
for Windows.
So, the connected Notebooks (with DVI) only recognising a Plug&Play monitor
with 640*480. I can choose another Monitor (e.g. 1024*768), but only with 4:3
Ratio but not 16:9 (1366*768). The same Notebook with Vista is working. Here
I can choose a Standard Monitor with 1366*768 (But the machine is to slow for
Vista, so it is not an option to upgrade).
Therefore I think the Intel Graphic Chip is aware of the resolution and I
only need a monitor.inf file with a resolution of 1366*768 for XP.
Does somone know where I can get such an inf file?

Regards

Florian

Try going to right click dektop/properties/display
settings/advanced/..........and click list all modes..........is your
resolution listed??

hi peter,
no, the resolution is not listed, only 4:3 resolutions.

Actually - you more than likely need an updated video card driver - not just
some INF for the monitor.

The News:
It's working now.
What I have done:
After a complete reinstall of XP SP2 with the Notebook docked and the
external monitor attached vis DVI, I have founbd five! Plug&Play monitors
inside the device manager. I installed the latest Chipset and Graphics driver.
Then I downloaded the .inf file of a Dell 24"WXGA Monitor and installed it.
After that I was able to set a resolution of 1360*768.
Now the aspect ratio is correct.

Florian
