HannsG HG281D Win7 Resolution

Does anyone know how to get a Hanns-G HG281D to have a max res of 1920 in 64bit win7 pro?

Mine only reaches 1600x1200. There is a vista driver (which dosn't work) but no Win 7.

I have emailed Hanns G asking if they will release a driver but not recieved a reply as yet.

Have you installed your graphics drivers yet?

Did you do a clean install or upgrade? Could that have something to do with it?

Was a clean install, it was like it even with Catalyst 9. i just gotten round to posting though....

Final got the HG218D back to 1920 * 1200

Happy Days,

simple answer was to try using the HDMI cable that was still in the box instead of the VGA cable. Still a mystery why the VGA cable didn't want to work in Win7 but hey.....

I have no problems using HDMI.

Hmm that's curious. My monitor (same model) is having major problems under HDMI that have been getting steadily worse over the last year. Tried plugging in the vga cable and it wouldnt even show up, even in lower res!
