    I've had this laptop for quite a while and I play games on it. Because of games like BF3 and the Witcher 2, I have to lower the resolution while I play for better performance. The only problem is that I'm missing one of the most common resolutions:1280x720. My laptop's native resolution is 1366x768. When I try to make a custom resolutin in the Intel control panel, it says: "you have entered an invalid value.Please refer to the manufacturer's manual to determine the supported values for this display device." this is B.S because when plugged into a tv via HDMI my laptop can display both 720p and 1080p. I have tried many drivers but the problem still insists. Please help...I need this resolution to play BF3 without lowering the settings.

    Specs:
    Hp DV6t quad edition laptop
    Intel 2630qm @2.00Ghz
    6Gb Ram
    AMD Radeon 6770m + Intel Hd 3000

    switch to Intel HD3000 and setup a custom 1280x720 resolution using Intel Graphics control panel. Then switch back over to the AMD and the resolution will also be available
