For example, my HP has an Nvidia GeForce FX Go5700 graphics card. It's been ages since I've looked at graphics cards specs to choose a compatible monitor and there always used to be some sort of a listing of frequencies and resolutions the card supported. I can't find that for this card.
Doesn't your HP laptop specs tell you what the supported resolutions and frequencies are?
Has the method of specifying compatibility changed in the past few years, or does on just make a guess, build a configuration and hope for the best?
I think most modern monitors and graphics cards are so flexible that you'll only run into problems in the most extreme circumstances.
Does anyone know if this card will support 1600 x 1200 monitors, or even more horizontal resolution in wide-screen monitors? Or better yet, point me to a man page where I can read and understand this black magic.
The card is probably OEM'ed for HP, which is why you should be asking HP. If it *is* OEM'ed, Nvidia could well deny it ever existed, or at least refuse to release any specs on it. /Per Jessen, Zurich -- Let your spam stop here - http://www.spamchek.com
