Native resolution of MacBook White (2008) to hook up a monitor

I have a 2008 early Macbook white. I want to hook up a monitor with it. I am looking for something from 25-28 inches.
I see that with a 26 inch 1920X1080, there is some fuzziness and it is not as crisp as it looks on the macbook screen. The icons are bigger and fuzzy. I assume that it is because 1920X1080 is not the native resolution of the macbook.
I am a programmer and want to use every possible real estate of the monitor as possible. Would like to know if it will be better if I use a 28 inch with 1920X1200? Also, if I am correct about the native resolution thing?
Also, if you could point out that a 28 inch Hannspree is a good choice or not?
Thanks.
AJ

Sorry. I also wanted to know if I can hook up two smaller monitors that will give me the highest (I think) res of 1280 by 800 each? Any connector that allows two monitors (not including macbooks own screen) to be attached to the macbook. Like two, 21 inch inch monitors?
Thanks.

    You can get a new third party battery fairly cheap on eBay. Every MacBook from 2006 through Mid 2009 except the Late 2008 Aluminum Unibody and the Late 2009 and 2010 White Unibodies use the same A1185 battery.

  • No sound on TV with mini DVI to HDMI cable.  Macbook, white, 2008-9 13"

    Picture is fine, mirroring turned on, using mini dvi converter into HDMI on a new Samsung flat screen.  Want to avoid using additional cable from earhone plug to RCA plug in TV.  Thanks

    Thanks for the prompt reply;  it saved me going through 16,000 permutations for nought.  BTW, although it seemed to be working well yesterday, today the computer is failing to load new sites, etc. when the DIVI is plugged in, and proceeds fine when unplugged.  Also, when I plug in the DVI, the screen image on the computer and tv flickers between black and then blue screens before the image stabilizes.  My TV and internet are both on Comcast cable, if that makes a difference.  Thanks for you help;  I wish the folks who sold lme the cable knew as much.  Also, no one seemed to know that you have to turn on the "mirroring" function for it to work at all.

  • External monitor will not go to native resolution on my macbook pro

    Hi, I have just bought a 22" Westinghouse monitor connected to the dvi and I have no idea on how to display its native resolution of 1680x1050 I have tried mirroring the two monitors and it will not allow me to view the native resolution on my new monitor.
    Any help with this is greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
    Message was edited by: earnerich

    earnerich,
    When mirroring, your Macbook Pro will default to the highest resolution of the lowest-resolution display. In this case, your external monitor must be driven at your Macbook Pro's highest resolution; 1440 X 900.
    If you configure the external monitor as an extended Desktop, you can increase its resolution to its maximum. In extended Desktop mode, both displays can be driven at their highest supported resolution.

  • External Display native resolution suddenly not available

    Hello,
    I'm using a Westinghouse LCM-22w3 external monitor with my MBP, connected via a DVI-to VGA adapter. I've used this computer/monitor setup for quite some time with no problem. Yesterday, I hooked my computer up to my 46" Samsung HDTV with no problem.
    When I hooked my computer back up to the Westinghouse, the native resolution (1680x1050) was no longer available. Instead, the monitor hooks up at 1600x1000. Strangely, though, the EDID information appears to suggest that 1680x1050 should be available. Here's the EDID:

    Any ideas? Switchresx didn't work, either

    Well, you can move the file from the desktop back to its original location to at least get back to what you had before.
    The file structure under Snow Leopard has changed and it's hard to keep up with this stuff. There is also now a com.apple.WindowServer.plist file in /System/Library/LaunchDaemons that you could try moving to the desktop and restarting. I dunno. Same rule applies.....if it doesn't help, move the file from the desktop back to its original location.

  • No native resolution of 1366x768 in gnome resolution manager..

    I kinda have a problem..My computer's monitor is an acer monitor and its configured right in the xserver (Brand name and everything recognized) but in the gnome monitor manager it does not give me a resolution of 1366x768 which is my monitors native resolution, which leads to poor image quality on the monitor..can anyone tell me how to get 1366x768 as a resolution option?

    Maybe you need to make a modeline to force the resolution? I did something like that with my TV.
    Here is a website that explains a bit about it, and also a calculator to actually calculate the modeline for you.
    http://www.arachnoid.com/modelines/
    The part I changed in my Xorg conf is

  • I need to upgrade my MacBook 13" white 2008 hard drive.  I have found a WD6400BPVT western digital Scorpio blue 640GB (5400rpm) SATA 8MB 2.5" will this fit and work? Many thanks for any help

    I had a 640GB HDD in my Early 2008 Macbook and it was just too much it would always freeze up the computer a bit for only a few seconds but ya. Then I realized that it was the size of the HDD that was causing it since the Early 2008 Macbook models can only handle a MAX od 500GB while the Early 2008 Macbook Pros could have a MAX of 640GB (Lucked out there!) lol But ya the Early 2008 Mocbooks can only handle a MAX HDD size of 500GB and that's it!! lol

  • Native resolution problem on Boot Camp running Windows 8.1 on Macbook PRO 15 (2011)

    Hello
    Couple days ago I purchased a DELL U2414h display, and I came across some problems while trying to use it with Windows 8.1 on Boot Camp.
    Everything works like a charm on MAC OS X and I get 1680x1050 resolution on my 2011 15 inch Macbook PRO, and 1920x1080 on the external DELL display.
    The problem starts when I run Windows 8.1... I get my native resolution on the Macbook, but the maximum usable resolution on the external display is 1776x1000. There's an option to choose 1920x1080, but when I do that, the screen looks blurry. Is there any way to overcome this problem?
    I'm using HDMI Adapter, and I installed all the drivers which were downloaded while installing the Boot Camp
    Cheers
    Patryk

    No I haven't, but could it be the case? The same display with the same adapter works fine while running the MAC OS X.
    But yeah, the adapter converts the mini display port to HDMI (as far as I know)
    Thanks for the reply

  • Can I upgrade HD to 750GB, 7200rpm on 13-Inch 2008 macbook (white)?

    I've just ordered a 'Western Digital Scorpio Black 750GB, 7200rpm, 2.5-inch internal Hard Drive' to upgrade the internal HD on my Early 2008 13-inch Macbook (white). It is only subsequently I've thought to check if there may be any issues with this, and I've read conflicting information. Some sources say the maximum compatible HD memory is 500GB, some say the maximum rpm is 5400rpm, others say 750GB and 7200rpm are compatible with the 2008 13-inch Macbooks.
    I don't want to open the sealed packaging of the new 750GB, 7200rpm Hard Drive if I'm going to have to return it. Can anyone conclusively advise if this Hard Drive will be compatible with my Macbook?
    The Macupgrades website shows a 'Seagate Momentus' 750GB, 7200rpm drive as being compatible, but only shows the 'WD Scorprio Blue' 750GB version, which runs at a slower 5400rpm - it doesn't mention the faster Scorpio Black (7200rpm) version (scroll further down the page to view HD compatibility): http://www.macupgrades.co.uk/store/machine.php?name=macbook
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.
    Tanja

    Did you ever find out if this is possible? Did you try the drive and it worked out for you?
    I'm actually considering the same drive, so I'd love to hear what happened.

  • Wolfenstein not running on Macbook white early 2008

    hello all.
    i've been playing RTCW since i had a G4 Cube with Mac OS 9.
    bought a mini in november 2007, installed it, and been playing it with no problems since then.
    in december 2008 ago i bought a Macbook white early 2008, and could never get RTCW to run.
    now i stumbled on this tip over the internet: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6984854
    but it doesn't work either.
    anyone have had the same problem and could get it solved?
    thanks in advance

    question not answered but tried again and solution worked.

  • BENQ FP241W on Retina Macbook Pro - native resolution not supported?

    Hi there,
    I have tried connecting my BENQ FP241W monitor to my new Macbook Pro with retina display via HDMI.
    The monitor appears to be displaying at only 1600x900 and looks very blurry since the native resolution of the monitor is 1920x1200. I have actually tried this with an older 2009 model macbook pro and the same thing happend, although I was using a dispaly port to HDMI adaptor and never investigated further to the reason the native resolution was not supported.
    Going back to the Retina Macbook and the BENQ FP241W. It gives the following resolution options for scaled: 1080p, 1080i and 1600x900. When I choose 1080p or 1080i it looks the same as 1600x900 i.e very blury and not even close to the sharpness that is capable of the display - true 1080p should look sharper than how it looks selected so I dont believe it is actually displaying 1080p. It also has the option for 'best for display' which I would expect it to show native resolution of 1920x1200 - unfortunately it still apears to be 1600x900.
    Can anyone help me out? Is this a driver issue or something else?
    Thanks
    Rich

    I can sort this out by just using a HDMI > DVI cable which works fine. I think there must just be an issue with the BenQ HDMI input supporting 1920x1200. Its annoying because the screen is also connected to a PC workstation by DVI so it would be good to have the HDMI for the Macbook so I can quickly switch the display by pressing a button instead of having to unplug cables...

  • White 2008 MacBook will not boot completely (hangs up)

    For Christmas 2008 I bought a New 2008 Apple MacBook (White) for my 13 year old Grandson. He gave it back to me to "fix" .
    He said the following problem ----will not boot/Hangs UP during boot---- *first appeared immediately after he downloaded and installed an "APPLE/MACBOOK" update of some kind last week.*
    DOES THIS SOUND FAMILIAR TO ANYONE OUT THERE? IF SO I WOULD APPRECIATE YOUR SUGGESTIONS.
    More info:
    It will not boot completely. when powered on it-- chimes once with the normal Mac sounds (Not a POST Beep error)---- and a white screen---- with apple logo in center appears--- after several seconds a small spinning "activity/busy" circle appears below the logo. This circle appears and spins for about 3 to 4 minutes with no other activity happening. Then the screen goes blank and power goes off.
    Oh yes I am not certain as to the Exact OS designation that is installed (sorry)
    I am new to Mac but have checked:
    The power (A/C, and supply are on, Mag power cord attached and battery charge light on battery is blinking green with 4 steady green lEDs on--- (So I assume I'm OK with NO power or battery issues)
    I then tried to boot into "safe" mode. (shift key when power on) (No change)
    Then I tried Cmd, Option, P, R keys as suggested in manual during power on to reset nv(p)Ram (No change)
    Grandson is searching for manuals, OS Apple Hardware troubleshooting disk etc. While I wait to receive those items from him --------
    Does anyone have any Ideas /suggestions?
    Thanks in advance!
    Joe

    HI Joe and Welcome to Apple Discussions...
    Since you can't boot in Safe Mode that's not a good sign. You really need those install disc(s) to repair the drive if necessary.
    When you get the install disc...
    Insert the installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
    Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger and later) and launch Disk Utility.
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
    Select First Aid in the Main panel.
    (Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel. It should say: Verified)
    Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
    If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
    If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
    When you are finished with DU, from the Menu Bar, select Utilities/Startup Manager.
    Select your start up disk and click Restart
    While you have the Disk Utility window open look at the bottom of the window. You will see Capacity and Available. Make sure you always have a minimum of 10% free disk space.
    You can try something that doesn't require the install disk and that's Reset the SMC
    If you can get the MacBook to boot up to the Desktop, click the Apple Menu then click About This Mac. The Mac OS X version number will be displayed there. 10.x.x

  • How can I plump up my 2008 MacBook white?!

    Hello clever people. I sold my fancy MacBook Pro to go travelling so have now reverted to my trusty 2008 MacBook White  and have updated to OSX 10.7.5.
    I would like to know how I can beef up my performance - I know I can upgrade my memory but I want to do as much as possible so any tips from anyone who has done the same would be great!
    Specs are:
    2.1GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    2 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
    150 GB HD
    Can I update my RAM and my Hard Drive? How about the processor?
    Many thanks!
    Tim
    <Title edited by host>

    You can upgrade Ram (6GB max) and the HDD, not the processor.
    Biggest performance will come from fitting an SSD instead of an HDD, plus Ram.
    Go to OWC and check your options.

  • New Corsair ram issues - 2008 Macbook (white) 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo

    Just after having a successful (though after some help from the forum) install of 8GB into my mid 2009 MBP I helped my brother install a 4GB (2x2GB) memory upgrade from OEM 2GB (2x1GB) into his 2008 macbook (white) 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo system. Checked and made sure I got the right memory speed and capacity for the 2008 macbook. Here's the memory I recieved http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0011UPBMA/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00
    So since installing even though the system seems to read the memory correctly showing in system profiler that 4GB is recognized and the status reads "OK" the system is crashing
    Below is the latest system crash report that I copied from when I had to restart the computer. Any help on what to do or if the memory is bad?
    Note: After booting into safe boot. The system is still crashing! (The report below is before the crash in safe boot)

    Hmmm I'm not quite sure if I'm ready to conclude that it's not compatible. I mean vendor of ram shouldn't be why it's not working as I just got done installing Corsair ram into my mid 2009 MBP and although had trouble initially was able to figure out (with the help of this forum and a very helpful member: Kappy) that I had an incompatible (for OSX) kext installed on my sytem. The Corsair ram on my MBP is running great now.
    Wish I knew how to read the panic report. Anything pointing to something else that may be incompatible or anything pointing specifically to the memory.
    I'm not trying to ignore your advice as I'm very appreciative of it, it's just that I was pretty certain that the ram purchased should be compatible as I checked all specifications and noticed the reviews pointing to compatibility.
