I have a monitor from 2008 or so. That seems to have somekind of a problem internally. At times the monitor will go off / only offer 800x600 resolution from the computer. The problem is not in the computer as I've tested this with different outputs / cables and the problem does not happen with other monitors I've also had different graphics cards installed on the system and the problem has persisted. It seems to be a problem inside the display probably on the logic board with the signal inputs -> output to lcd panel. If I take the display apart is there something I should check for, is there something specific I could do to it to possibly solve the problem? The only solution I have is to disconnect the power and wait a while, reconnect the power and it might give options for 1680x1050.
one way to is 60 hz
SOURCE: hello, I have been using my
Your graphics card will not support that refresh rate @ 1680x1050. you may need to upgrade your graphics card.
Here is the best price/performance card for your machine. and will support upto 2048x1536 @ 85Hz
Hope this helps.
