    Hello there,

    iam a proud owner of an brand new M17xR2 with Intel Core i7 920xm, 8GB Memory, The 1920 x 1200 Display and dual 1GB 4870 Ati Cards. Now i connected my 24" Samsung SyncMaster 245B via Displayport -> DVI Cable. Why is the max Resolution 1920 x 1200 for external Video Output?
    My Monitor supports 1920 x 1600 and on my computer this was working very good, now everything looks so big, i dont like it, is there any way to get a higher resolution on the Displayport?

    Thanks !!

    Also where can i get the newest Drivers for my dual cards ?

    Thanks !!
