    All,

    Do the 855GM/915GM shared Intel graphics chips as found in most ultraportable notebook PCs such as M5, S5, W5 support the Widescreen format? I learned that the maximum resolution supported is 1600x1200, although it is higher than the 16:10 widescreen 1680x1050. Do we need to download special drivers to take full advantage Widescreen monitors? Thanks

    You can do this with the dedicated cards ..... but haven't been able to find any drivers that can help.

    Thanks,
