YOUR MONITOR MAY NOT SUPPORT TAHT HIGH OF A RESOLUTION, OR ITS A VID CARD PROBLEM

Input Signal out of range
Change size to 1440x900
then after so long if i dont, the monitor goes in sleep mode lol
but when its all stretched out and i hit auto adjust it says
Recommended settings: 1440x900

You May Want To Try Updating Your Vid Card Drivers, And See If Hp Offers Drivers For The Monitor On Their Website.... I Just Went Thru And Read A Few Reviews On It, And A Few People Said "your Mileage May Vary" Which Means It May Not Be The Most Rreliable, Anotherwords High Failure Rate....
Best Bet Would Be To Try Updating Drivers, See If Maybe A Driver Just Got Hosed, Or A Setting

only one i can find is 1400x1050
when i do it it looks good except the monitor keeps going into sleep mode after so long and theres a white bar across the top that says that "input signal out of range" BS
ill try that driver thing, i think something did pop up saying something about a driver. lol
thanks bud

why such high res. its only a 19" screen. i usually run mine around 1280x960 @ 80hz. I could go way higher but there's not really much point on a 19". 60Hz makes my eyes hurt and the higher your res the less HZ your monitor can handle.
