1680x1050 resolution on External with RevA PB 12"

Does 1680x1050 resolution 20" Monitor work on 1680x1050 resolution with my 867 MHz first PB.
Have anyone tried?

Yeah thanks!
I realize that. I think i have the latest toshiba drivers but still not supported. I am sure the intel chip can support this resolution. Does anyone know why Toshiba don't support this resolution in their drivers as it is now quite a common eternal display size.
There are some forums talking of editing .inf files for different graphics cards. Or updating drivers in Linux on the 855 chipset but this is no use to me.
Thank you for your help

  • 1680X1050 Resolution for external display is not an option in Lion?

    I am using a DVI to mini DVI connection on my MacBook Pro and did not have this problem with Snow Leopard.  Is there anyway I can get this resolution as an option?

    Hello William
    I have no experience with this but somewhere on this forum I have read similar topic. Before you wait here use advanced search option and use 1680 x 1050 as searched term. I am pretty sure you will find this topic where one guy explained how to set 1680 x 1050 resolution on external monitor.
    Good luck!

  • Tecra A2: Cannot use the 1680x1050 resolution on external LCD monitor

    Hi All,
    I need to make my Tecra A2 run at 1680x1050 at 60Hz for my new external VW222U LCD monitor which is connected to my port replicator.
    I know the card (which is 82852/82855) can run at this resolution as when using the Intel Embedded drivers it works, just one has to give up all the little nice things when using the standard drivers, like monitor switching etc....
    I have been discussing on many forums over at Intel's site why this resolution is not available by default, it appears that it is not a resolution enabled in the video BIOS which the display drivers read by default, so the vendor need to add it, the reason that the embedded drivers work, is that they don't read this directly from the video BIOS....
    Thanks and regards,
    Adam

    Hi,
    I know that issue, but we have to live with it because it seems that the graphics card vendors are giving some really "default" drivers to the notebook manufacturers.
    I have an Satellite Pro S200 and I also use the Intel drivers from the Intel homepage. But my monitorswitching, etc.. works like a charm so maybe if you install the tools like the "FN-F5" etc.. it would probably work.
    I would give it a try, otherwise: it is like it is.. :/

  • No 1680x1050 Resolution for External Monitor?

    Hello, forum friends! So after getting a very nice 22"-ish Envision Monitor connected via VGA to my 2011 Macbook Pro, it appears that there is no option for the monitor's recommended resolution, which is 1680x1050! The highest level resolution is 1600x1200, which makes everything look a little stretched out. Does anyone know how to adjust this manually, or has anyone else had this problem? I've heard that this is a new problem from the recent display update.
    Thanks for your help!

    Hmm, I've appeared to solve my own problem! I simply used the application SwitchResX. It worked very well.
    Hope this helps someone else, then!

  • Supported Resolutions for Powerbook 12" Rev A

    I have a Rev A 12" Powerbook (867MHz) that has the Geforce 4MX 32MB graphics card. I was wondering if anyone knew the resolutions that my Powerbook supports and in particular if it would support a 1680x1050 resolution since I want to buy the Dell 2005FPW which runs at a native 1680x1050 resolution and use it as an external monitor.

    Just for everyone's reference, in case this information is still needed....
    The Rev.A 12" PowerBook supported resolutions and refresh rates for an external monitor, according to the technology specs PDF file available when it was first introduced:
    <table border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="3" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; margin-top: 10px;"><tr valign="bottom"><td>Picture size in pixels</td><td>Maximum refresh rate</td><td>Pixel depth with

  • Tecra S5: No 1920x1200 & 1680x1050 support on external monitors?

    Hello,
    I have a Tecra S5 with nVidia Quadro NVS 130M (512 MB)
    Officially, according to Toshiba the external monitor specs are:
    +max. resolution : 2,048 x 1,536+
    +max. refresh rate : 100 Hz+
    +non-interlaced resolution with max. refresh rate : 1,920 x 1,200+
    I try to work with 2 different external monitors with no luck.
    First I had a Samsung 245B, 24'' (1920x1200). I install the Samsung driver, but this resolution was not supported.I tried also the forceWare from laptop2go.com, but again no luck.
    So, I change my monitor and bought a Samsung 2243NW, 22'', 1680x1050. This resolution is the same with the native resolution of Tecra. I thought that this resolution could be supported. But still no luck. I could change the resolution to 1400x1050, or 1600x1200, but not the 1680x1050.
    It it really a pity that Toshiba doesn't support 1920x1200 and 1680x1050 resolutions. The majority of nowadays monitors use those res.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you for your time

    Hi
    You should firstly check if you graphic card would support such resolution on external monitor.
    The user manual should provide all details.
    If the graphic card doesnt support you favorite resolution then there is nothing to do.
    If the GPU will support such external resolution then you have to check if the graphic driver would also support such resolution. The point is that even if the graphic card would support the external resolution you will be not able to choose it if the graphic driver doesnt support it.
    As you see more factors are important

    I have a Tecra S2 with Windows XP SP2 and graphic card NVIDIA GeForce Go 6600. Internal resolution (display of notebook) is 1024 x 768. Its work fine. But I work with an external monitor VGA with "DualView" function. It is a Samsung Syncmaster 940N.
    It??s all OK (19", resolution 1280 x 1024), with my new monitor Samsng Syncmaster 203B don't work: The external monitor's native resolution is 1400x1050 but the maximal resolution available is 1280 x 1024. And so, using 1280x1024 resolution, will cause the image on the external monitor and text is not clear.
    I cannot set the 1400 x 1050 resolution via Control Panel nor via NVIDIA -menu.
    Graphic card drivers are updated to the last version on the Toshiba site. Graphic card NVIDIA GeForce Go 6600 is supported from my monitor Syncmaster 203B.
    Max. resolution for external video of NVIDIA GeForce Go 6600 is higher as 1400 x 1050.
    I need to use this new monitor, can you help me?
    Many thanks in advance!

  • Setting the resolution for external monitor

    Hello all,
    I just purchased a ViewSonic vx2025wm 20.1" external monitor for my PowerBook G4 1.5Ghz 12". I've scoured the discussions regarding my question, but couldn't seem to find it. So I'll post it here...
    I've successly connected the ViewSonic to my PB and the image seems to display fine in "spanning" mode (ie images span over two screens). However, when I try to "mirror" (ie have the same view show on both screens) the external monitor displays a 1024x768 resolution (the PB displays this as well, but that is the optimal resolution for the 12"). My question is this: how can I mirror while having each screen display its optimal resolution (the optimal resolutions would be 1680x1050 for the External monitor, and 1024x768 for the PB).
    Thanks in advance for any wisdom on this!
    PowerBook G4 1.5 Ghz 12 inch   Mac OS X (10.4.6)   1.25 Gig RAM

    Thanks for the quick response -- and one follow-up question. Will turning mirror off (which, if I understand correctly, will place the displays in spanning mode) cause a strain on my PB? Since the PB will be supporting the displays of both the external monitor plus its own display. Does that make sense? I actually read something related to this in these discussions which is why I brought it up. I will try to locate that discussion and place a link in this thread so I can better explain.

  • Lost 1680x1050 resolution

    Clean install of SL last week with zero issues. Today used bootcamp to install XP. No problems noted. Boot into OS X, using my Westinghouse monitor as I have for many months now as my indoor display and the resolution is all messed up. I go into system preferences/Display and discover there is no 1680x1050 resolution setting anymore!!!
    I reboot and it's still not there. Stuff is looking crappy and I'd like to get things back to the way they were. Help!!!!

    i have a similar problem; I also lost my 1680x1050 resolution option. Have been looking around for solution but haven't found any yet. Could someone please help me?

  • T400s max resolution for external monitor ?

    Hello
    What is the max resolution for an external monitor connected to a thinkpad t400s  ? The reason i am asking is that:
    a) Intel says:  the max resolution of Graphics Media Accelerator 4500MHD is 2048x1536
    b) Lenovo says:  DisplayPort + D-sub dual-display output support 2560×1600 maximum resolution
    What are your experiences and what maximum resolutions on external monitors have you succesfuly tried in real life ?
    Would it be possible to connect a 30" monitor at 2560x1600  to a thinkpad t400s ?

    i don't know and i never tried but i'm inclined to trust intel more than lenovo on this...unless the t400s has some beefed-up x4500mhd
    T400s - 2815RW1 + Win7 Ultimate
    Don't pm me for help! That's what the forum is for. Also, Google's nicer than me. Ask him.

  • Can't make ATI radeon use 1680x1050 resolution

    I can't get my ati card to display 1680x1050 resolution in xorg. I'm running xorg 7.1 and the newest ati drivers. but I only get 1600x854 (or something) when trying to set it to 1680x1050. My video card is ATI Radeon Mobility 9700. Do  I need to update the firmware of the card, or is there a setup issue?
    Thanks in advance.

  • 1680x1050 Resolution Supported on Windows XP?

    So I am deciding to buy a Dell SP2009W which is in the resolution of 1680x1050. In my Boot Camp Windows XP display properties, there isn't a resolution of 1680x1050. The only one that comes close to it is 1600x1024 or 1600x900. If I connect my monitor to my MacBook Pro, will Windows XP still support 1680x1050? Or do I need to download new drivers? If so, can anyone link me to the drivers? Thanks.

    The reason it is only showing you those resolutions in XP is because of the monitor that is attached at the time doesn't support those other resolutions.
    The Plug & Play ability of XP will automatically detect that the monitor that is attached is 1680x1050 resolution and it will display fine.
    You can use dual monitors too and have the main MBP display set at 1900x1200 and the dell set at 1680x1050.
    Simply put, it will work fine.

  • IMac with 10.6.6 will not boot from external with 10.4.11

    My MacBook Pro with 10.6.6 will boot from that same external with 10.4.11 but the iMac does not. Why not?
    1. When the iMac is starting up with the Option key depressed, the bootable 10.4.11 appears normally and can be selected. But when I click on the circle below the bootable icon, the computer freezes.
    2. When I have the iMac running and try to change the startup volume via the Preferences, the bootable icons are present but are not active.
    Is there a setting on the iMac I need to reset? Or, is it not possible to boot from the 10.4.11 external?
    Specs:
    MacBook Pro Processor - 2.16 GHz Intel Core Duo, Memory - 2 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
    iMac Processor - 3.06 GHz Intel Core i3, Memory - 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3

    The answer is dependent upon what version of OS your machines came with (and the install disks are machine/build specific) - no Mac can boot from a system older than what was supplied with the machine. So, if your MBP originally came with 10.4.x and you upgraded it since, it can still be booted from the earlier version. If your iMac came with 10.6.3 for instance, it can only be booted with 10.6.3 or later.

  • Does the midi mixer in the environment internally or externally with Logic?

    Does the midi mixer in the environment internally or externally with Logic Pro 9?  I notice that when I create midi files in Logic, I have to change the parameters (banks, volume, pragram changes etc.) in the event list window, which take a good amount of time to do.  Just wondering if that was normal operation, if it could be done from the midi mixer as opposed to the regular mixer.

    I have to change the parameters (banks, volume, pragram changes etc.) 
    There is a special Logic keycommand "Insert Instrument Midi settings as Events". Assign some keys to it, select the midi region you want to insert to (instrument settings like "Bank", "Prg", "Vol", "Pan" etc) and hit that key command which will insert the track settings into the midi region.
    BTW. After the operation you can open the Event List for that mid region and check if this works...
