Hello Shawn,

I've taken a look and it seems your monitor does not support the 1440 resolution:

Modes: EDID: monitor SAM021E (SyncMaster) modes: 640x480@59.9405, 640x480@67.2311, 640x480@72.8088, 640x480@75, 720x400@70.0866, 800x600@56.25, 800x600@60.3165, 800x600@75, 800x600@72.1876, 832x624@74.8364, 1024x768@60.0038, 1024x768@70.0694, 1024x768@75.0286, 1152x864@75, 1152x870@74.8591, 1280x960@60, 1280x1024@60.0197, 1280x1024@75.0247, 1680x1050@59.9543

I think there is not much we can do about that right now. If the monitor says it's not supporting the resolution ;-(

Hi Patrick,

Wow, you are correct it doesn't support 1440.

However, i plugged it into my laptop DVI port and checked and it DOES support 1280x800 or 1360x840. My monitor is actually the 16:10 variety.

I just don't get why this won't show the resolutions that would actually suit the monitor - instead the only resolutions showing are looking squished.
