i believe you will find *1078* falls in lcd class monitors.

because op did not specify just what his system was, is why i replied
to his post as i did.

i felt that if he wanted help and not give needed info, i would
send what i did and let him figure out rest of it.

op should have a manual showing resolutions, or at least be able to
look up monitor, be it laptop or desktop.

one day i hope to find a site listing resolutions for crt, led, lcd,
and plasma monitors and not have to search oem sites.
