Ok, i got my samsung monitor about 2 months ago. and yesterday i went over to a friends house who has the same monitor as me, and i noticed that his resolution seemed a lot better than mine. So when i got home and tried to change it, i couldn't get any widescreen resolutions. i downloaded the driver off the website and it didn't do anything. right now im sitting at 1024x768, and i want to get to 1440x900. I know that my graphics card can support this resolution because my previous monitor could handle it. Please help. :confused:

You should only use a widescreen resolution if you have a widescreen monitor.

As to changing your resolution to a higher one, know that all monitors have a native resolution and that the monitor works best when native.. Trying to force a higher resolution than native can cause problems.
 
it stays the same.
the weird thing is when i change it to a bigger resolution i can move the screen with my mouse. Like if i change it to 1280 by 600 i can move the screen side to side with my mouse because the whole thing doesn't fit on the monitor.
:eek:
 
That is weird, and your monitor is supposed to have 1440x900 native resolution.

You have most recent drivers for your video card? Personally, I don't know what else it could be.
