Resolution that high needs a dual-link DVI port, which the notebook doesn't have. I don't think any of the D-docks do either - so if you want to drive that monitor at that resolution, you'll need a more capable notebook.

If you have a full Dell dock with a separate video card, maybe - if you're driving it from the notebook's video chip, no.
At that, I don't think any of the D-series docks have dual-link DVI - they're all single-link.

Ok, I have upgraded to a Dell Vostro 1720....
Still can't seem to get the Full HD 1920x1080 resolution on my 24" monitor. Help????
The max I can get is still 1440x900.
Surely this new Dell can support it.

I was talking about the resolution on the monitor when hooked up to my Dell ST2410 24" Monitor.
I fixed the problem. When I closed the lid on the laptop, the resolution adjusted to 1920 on my monitor :)
