[darshan_divekar]

I have a MSI K8M890 motherboard with VIA chrome9 HC IGP display adapter. i recently purchased a Dell 17" wide screen monitor but my display adapter doesnot support 1440x900 resolution. I have updated the bios and also confirmed that it supports up to 1920x1440.

Info from WinS3ID v1.00.29-0220

Can anyone help me.

[Mr. Chris]

Try these drivers here: VIA Arena - Display Drivers
If that doesn't help, then you will need to see if MSI has an updated BIOS for your board that will allow the resolution that you want. Chris.

i tried using CN896(CE)_200201g_XP_wIShld driver and it shows 1440x900 resolution, which means the bios is supporting but than this is not the right driver . i need to have a new driver

[Mr. Chris]

No, the driver does support the higher resolutions, you BIOS does not. Ask MSI for a custom BIOS that will support the resolution that you want. They have done this in the past for many VIA customers, so I know they can do it. Chris.
