Hi all, I'm new...
I have a Sony VAIO Z1VA laptop with an integrated ATI Mobility Radeon graphics card that only has 16mb VRAM.
I just purchased an LG 19" widescreen flat panel and have hooked it up with the VGA cable (no DVI plug). but there's a problem: my computer won't allow me to select a widescreen resolution of 1440x900. It will only let me do 1440x1050, which makes everything look squished.
I called LG's tech support and they said my graphics card needs FIRMWARE upgrade. But ATI refused to give me any customer support.
1) Is this correct, do I need a firmware upgrade in order for my computer to give me the option to do 1440x900?
2) THE MILLION DOLLAR QUESTION: WHERE do I GET such firmware upgrades for my graphics card? Because it's a shitty, integrated card, can I not get one??
Someone help me find the upgrade I need to run the correct resolution! Thanks.
