Hello, I cant get my monitor to 1920x1080 resolution. I just installed a driver for it and when I select resolution and press apply it just goes black screen and when I press enter it goes back to 1600x1200
Shouldn't need a driver. The "generic PnP" Windows driver will work just fine. All a specific driver really does is change the name (ie: "LG Flatron w2243s" instead of "generic PnP").
In any event, uninstall the driver, reboot, and test.
You may also want to update/reinstall the video drivers. These type of issues are most often video driver related and not the monitor "driver".
What resolution do you get with the standard Windows driver? Did you install the latest AMD driver from either the AMD site or Windows Update? What operating system are you using? Make sure that you get the appropriate driver for your OS. Also, check to see if LG has a monitor driver for your OS.
That is for a bios and we are not even talking about that. You flash a bios when you have an issue that bios flash will fix and no other time.
I have to know your hardware to send you to the right place.
The motherboard has to have another model number that one is getting me nowhere except to the bios update for some reason. Most MSI boards have more than one model number which I have never understood. Rin this and tell me what that gives you for motherboard: http://downloads.tomsguide.com/SIW,0301-3552.html
The SIW will show slayerdeath if you look under Video card also and MPR has the right place to go for you for the drivers, thanks. If you don't know if 32 bit or 64 bit right click "My Computer" and choose "Properties" and the screen that comes up will tell you version.
Make sure the monitor is hooked up to the card and not the motherboard port.
