Dynadock WUXGA monitor resolution

I have a SAMSUNG 730U3E laptop connected to the Toshiba Dynadock U3.0 and have several hardware items connected to the dynadock like network cable, wireless mouse and keayboard and BenQ 24" WUXGA monitor.
I haven't updated my drivers since January 2014 which means i was on the v7.4.51587.0 (aka v7.5 M0) before i went to ugrade to the latest drivers. When i upgraded to the latest avaliable driver v7.7.59540.0 (aka v7.7M3) i noticed my monitor is forced into HD1080 resolution instead of the WUXGA. What's more, i didn't notice any WUXGA resolution avaliable for the monitor in either Windows 8.1 (64 bit) Control Panel options nor in the dynadock U3.0 options menu.
I've tried with various (not all) v7.7 and v7.6 drivers. Every one i've tried missed the WUXGA resolution. Did the dynadock drop support for the WUXGA resolution?
Is there any way how to force the WUXGA resoultion on the new dynadock drivers?
I've currently reverted back to the v7.4 drivers which are mostly stable (with minor issues when i unplug my laptop from the dynadock which usually requires a restart to fix the resolution issue when i plug it back to the dock).

Hi, James -
Re the monitor resolution, try throwing away the files Display Preferences and Monitor Preferences (the latter is in a folder by the same name). Then restart, and redo any settings necessary in the Monitors control panel.
Make sure the correct profile is selected for your monitor. That selection is made in the Monitors control panel, by clicking the Color button.
Re the sleep function, what is the exact message given?
Are you using the automatic sleep functions in the Energy Saver control panel? Or, are you using the Sleep item in the Special menu or the Control Strip?

My Mac mini no longer detects my monitor resolution

My Mac Mini has stopped being able to detect the resolution of my monitor, which is a 1680x1050 Acer widescreen. 1680x1050 is also no longer a choice of resolutions under 'Displays' in 'System Preferences' so I cannot select my monitor resolution manually. I suspect that there is a bug somewhere in a recent update which has broken support for my monitor. Is there an official channel by which I can report this bug? Has it been reported already? Is there an ETA on a fix? This renders my Mac more or less unusable.
Here's some info about what I'm running:

It's unlikely that the upgrades had anything to do with the problem, slim superdrives are just not all that reliable.
You might try a few tricks before taking it in for service or springing for a Mac compatable external DVD drive.
1. Reset the SMC > Resetting the System Management Controller
2. Reset the PRAM > Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
3. Clean it, for example with a > Memorex OptiDisc CD/DVD Laser Lens Cleaner

Est. external monitor resolution

I am trying to set up a samsung syncmaster 191Tplus as an external monitor on my macbook from early 2008 running 10.6.8. When I plug it in, both screens flash (not just a flicker) as shown in this youtube video posted by someone else, but my problem is the same
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2-Yz-Em2GU4.
I am using the mini-DVI to VGA adaptor. The resolution of the samsung is 1280x1024, which is not listed in my choice of display resolutions. Is this the cause? What can I do? I can't access settings to change anything after the monitor is connected, and I can't find settings for the external monitor before it is connected. Would using SwitchResX work to create a monitor resolution preset before plugging in the second monitor?

OK, here is something to try. Go into System Preferences and select Displays. In the window that opens will be a checkbox for "Show displays in menu bar." Put a checkmark there and make it active. There should now be a little icon of an Apple display on the right side of the menu bar at the top of the screen. If you click on it, it will drop down and give you a short cut to different resolutions. There should be a checkmark next to the currently active resolution. Is it set to 1440 x 900? If not, set it there.
If you are still getting that message from the monitor, well, I don't think the Mac is lying about sending 1440 x 900. If the screen doesn't look right to you, try using the Auto Adjustment feature on your Viewsonic monitor. It could just be that the image needs adjusting.

Mac mini monitor resolution

Hello,
I bought my mac mini today ( 2.6GHz dual-core Intel Core i5 - Intel Iris Graphics - OS X Yosemite ) I connected using the DisplayPort DVI cable to my Viewsonic vx992 monitor. I have been using this monitor for my Windows XP which used to give me 1280x1024 resolution.
When I connect the new Mac to my screen is work but I with poor monitor resolution .. It's 1280x1024 but poor not clear
I'v been used this monitor with Windows with the same resolution and the monitor resolution was excellent with Windows.
I connected the Mac with Samsung Smart TV via HD cable .. The monitor resolution is excellent
This is the converter that I used:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007KB0EGC/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF 8&psc=1
Now, I'm conflict .. Is the problem with the convert that I'v been used or from the monitor ??

Hi IIIaass
I don't know if the screenshot will showing you the noise that I talk about ,, there is a little noise in the text for example .. I work for while on my monitor and I know the resolution quality and the clarity that should be,, and I don't want to buy new monitor then I discovered that the problem was from the Adapter.
Thanks again .. and please tell me what's the best HDMI converter to DVI if you know about it.

We are getting this alert on a fair few of our VMs with VHDXs and Dynamic VHDs. Everything seems OK but I am not sure what this actually means and what I need to do to resolve the issue. How do I reset the error count if that is what is required? Thanks

But I am getting this alert from SCOM and SCOM has no information about the alert for me to find out what to do - thought that was the point of SCOM to let you know of problems and how to resolve them. :)
The alert is coming from the Error Count Monitor that is part of the Hyper-V Management Pack Extensions (v 4.0.0.0)
I have tried looking in the Event Logs on the Host and there doesn't seem to be any storage related errors there. I am trying to establish if this is a false positive, why it is happening and if it is safe to override and ignore.
There is nothing on the Product Knowledge tab and nothing on the Alert Context other than what I have already mentioned (see below).
Thanks for responding.

Changing monitor resolution with proper aspect ratio

My project size is 800x600 and I wanted to provide an option to the user to change their monitor resolution at 800x600 by clicking on button. I have also planned to do it by using buddy api xtra, and already tested it. The problem is, when I am doing this on a PC with panoramic monitor (native resolution 1920x1080), it got stretched. I know it's very natural (as the aspect ratio has changed ) and I can get it in shape by squeeze the width using 'draw.rect'.
I noticed, there are some PCs with advanced display card that don't even get stretched, but shows the 800x600 resolution in proper aspect ratio by keeping the extra space black both sides. And I don't need to write any further codes (squeeze the width using 'draw.rect') to keep it in shape.
The real problem starts here, I can't able to filter the above situations by any logical means. I wanted to write codes only for the PCs that get stretched, but I didn't able to find any support from Director to determine which type of display card has been attached. I need to know whether it will get stretched, or the display card can able to manage the aspect ratio.
Any one have any solution in this matter?
Please don't hesitate to ask if you need any more info.

Hello handler
If you talking about this kind of thing...

You don't need an xtra to change the resolutions - but you do have to work a few things - I tend to use flash text because it scales better.

Secondary Monitor Resolution Dropped with Mavericks

After installing Mavericks (should have waited) my second monitor resolution has suddently dropped. It still claims to be 1080p but it is clearly not the same resolution as it was before and has been reduced.
So annoying.
Any ideas?

Hi there,
the same for me too. I'm using an external monitor from NEC with a native resulition of 1920 x 1200.
The monitor is connected to a mac mini server from mid 2011 via HDMI.
In OSX 10.8 the OS automatically selected 1080p as the best resolution which was not correct but I could choose it manually from the list of scaled solutions.
In Mavericks the native solution of 1920 x 1200 has gone from the list. Only 1080p and 1080i are listed.
This is very annoying.
But:
If I activate my apple tv as a second screen (new feature in Mavericks) all resolutions that disappeared with Mavericks are here again and working fine including 1920 x 1200. As soon as I disable the second screen feature the resolutions fade away...
I just downloaded a command line tool for switching the resolution manually. This works until the machine is rebooted...
Any tips / hints?

Help to reset monitor resolution?

Greetings,
I have a G5 Quad with an Ati x1900 graphics card running into a 52" Samsung LCD. This was working fine through a dvi-vga adaptor until I switched the monitor resolution from 1920X1080 to 1360X768 which is not supported by the monitor .....blank screen. I plugged another 19" monitor into the other output on the card and both work fine but as soon as I remove the 19" the 52" reverts back to the unsupported mode.
I have reset the pram and tried booting in safe mode but that did not help me.
From bootup the 52" works fine until just before the login screen, then it switches resolution......blank screen.
Would anyone know where these settings would be housed in OS 10.5.1 so I can modify (delete) them?
Any ideas would be much appreciated
Thanks
Gareth

Thanks so much for your help.
Not wishing to play around in single user mode, I opted to delete the files /Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver.plist
/Users/username/Library/Preferences/ByHost/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver.xx xx.plist
using my PowerBook over the Firewire with the G5 in target disc mode.
This worked a treat
Thanks again

Win8.1-TV Monitor resolution need 1360x768 only allow 1280x720 & 1920x1080! Works fine in Win7!

Win8.1-TV Monitor resolution, need 1360x768 only allow 1280x720 & 1920x1080! Works fine in Win7!
I replace my win7 pc with a win8.1 pc. the TV monitor I was using with Win7 worked fine with 1360x768 resolution, however I don't have that choice with the Win8.1. I tried for months now with default & custom settings. I think is that Win8.1 sees the
display as Funai TV (Sylvania) where as Win7 as the Intel video display driver.
Some suggest edit the monitor.ini, not sure if that will work!
Any help is appreciated!

Hi, ecscomp,
Based on my research, the resolution of second monitor should be managed by PC's graphic card driver, not Windows. That's to say, if the graphic card driver doesn't had a correspond setting to change display resolution settings, I'm afraid we have no way
to change the resolution to 1366x768.
Thanks for your understanding.

How do you determine correct monitor resolution

monitor resolution changes in system preferences is not restting the display back to correct resolution.
how do i determine the correct setting so the desktop image is not running off the sides of the screen?

do you choose the "best for display" radio button ?
for me that set the correct resolution
of cause if you set it to mirror it will not be it's native resolution if the display it's mirroring is in a lower resolution

Is there a method in labviewto dynamically save and change the monitor resolution under program control?

Is there a method in labview to dynamically save and change the monitor resolution under program control? I have another application that runs on another monitor. I would like to change the monitor resoultion to 640x480 on program startup, and then restore the monitor resolution back to the user's settings on exit. Can this be done?

Have you already done this manually? I've seen Labview scale front panels very strangely when changing resolutions...
