Hi people,
Ok I realized my mistake and fixed it (See below). However the TV doesn't support that resolution. So it appears, I either need to upgrade cards or stay at this resolution. So the question is now, video card recommendations. I just want something that will take advantage of the greater capabilities of the TV.
Thank you again.
Kate
Original Question:
I stepped into it. A client gave me a Samsung QLED 43 inch TV to use as a monitor for "fixing" his zip drive problem (he had it slaved to a ROM drive so it wasn't working properly). One tax audit survival later, TV...
Anyway, I want to take advantage and run a higher res. Currently it's running at 1920x1080. I've tried a variety of thing to change the res but none were really successful. The card can run higher resolution than that. The card is a Radeon HD 6450 with 2G DDR3 with a max res of 2560 x 1600 at 60 Hz.
I tried using pclos's ui but it doesn't seem to be working. I'm assuming I'm doing something wrong (obviously) so here I am.
Any thoughts humans, AIs and others?
Kate

IME, 16:9 TVs generally don't support 16:10 resolutions (e.g. 2560x1600). Did you try 2560x1440? HD6450 works with 2560x1440 here.

Thank you. I didn't think of that. I'll try it tomorrow and let you know.
Thank you Felix
