Dimension 9100 Video Driver for Wide Screen Question

Hi There:
I have a D9100 and I just added a new 23" Dell LCD monitor.  Unfortunately it is a 1920 X 1200 display and my Windows XP settings only go up to 1280 X 1024.  What do I need to download to get my drivers in sync with the new monitor?

 

Thanks

It's not the model computer or OS that matters. It's your video card. You cannot go higher than your video card allows. The new monitor will do fine with 1280x1024.

Thanks Mary:

Unfortunately, it works, but everything is stretched out and squashed...not good. Is there a Dell compatible video card that you couid recommend?

Thanks

mcolman,

What is the model number of your monitor?

In the Windows Display Properties window, what kind of monitor does Windows think is attached?

It is important to know exactly what it says.
