I tried the SwitchX program but also this program can't determine that the monitor can run at 1920x1080 mode. The monitor is a HDMI monitor. I have used both the HDMI-HDMI and the DVI-HMDI connection. Both with the same result.
Would anyone have any advice here or is it just the only resolution it will run?
