Hi I just got the LG 194WTX and i updated the drivers through the windows advanced display settings.. However I'm not sure if I'm supposed to see new resolution settings after that or not.. Right now I still have to use my 1152*854 and there is no 1440*900 resolution ... I have no idea what I am doing wrong.. if someone can help that would be great... my computer is old and doens't have a video card.. It just runs off of my integrated motherboard graphics.

If its old then I doubt it will support any widescreen resolutions let alone the one for your lcd.

i just found a new driver and put that in.. it gave me the following two resolutions that may work better.. 1366 by 768 and 1400 by 1050... any recommendations?

Which motherboard do you have?(model)

Powerstrip: Add Custom Desktop Resolution

Try and add the res yourself. If it is too much for the gfx it will revert back after a bit.
If your onboard is to bad you can buy a new one really cheap. Since you are using an onboard gfx I guess you don't game any type of heavy games so the cheapest agp/pcie should do fine.

Hey thanks I'll try that... and yes I don't do any gaming on my comp. I got the monitor primarily for gaming on my 360. Nonetheless I would just like to have the correct resolution while i'm on the PC. I have an ASRock AMD SiS series, Product #K7S41GX.

The integrated graphics is a SiS M741

if someone could list possible video cards that I could get which would allow widescreen resolution that woudl be great.. I don't want to spend a lot of money on it because I won't be playing games.. just want the recommended resolution so the cheapest card is what i'm looking for.
