will Win 10 not 'do' a 1920x1080 monitor?

(1/5) > >>

Curt:
I was given a PC, to replace the laptop. This means I can use the "old" monitor I have, but never before have used. My problem is that it is 1920x1080 pixels, and my new Windows 10 does not offer this option! So far I have it set to 1600x1200, but that is not looking good  :(



Surely this must be some kind of error?
 :tellme:

Help needed, please!

mouser:
I cant think of why windows 10 wouldnt offer you that option.. Are you sure it's seeing the right monitor (and not the built-in one) when it gives you those choices?

tomos:
Curt, does the machine have a video card?
Is the driver up-to-date? (if so maybe it needs an older driver :-[)

EDIT//
or maybe uninstall the driver and start again - but not being the expert, I dont know whether to recommend letting windows find the driver, or trying to find it yourself...

wraith808:
Mine is currently at 1920 x 1080, so it's not Windows 10.

rgdot:
Of course internet has every query but strange to see more than a few when googling for that resolution and Win10.
