Thinkpad T60 outputting 1680x1050 issues

I have a Thinkpad T60, no dock, with an x1400 videocard hooked up to a Samsung syncmaster 216bw with a resolution of 1680x1050. However, I'm unable to get the laptop to output at this resolution; the resolution that works best is 1400x1050. I have an option for 1600x1200 and I have used that resolution in the past on another monitor, so this tells me the card is powerful enough to output to this screen at 1680x1050.

Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this cause I have been searching google for days and people have been saying that the laptop is capable of this resolution.

are you using some drivers that might not support that resolution?


you can try unchecking "show only options that this computer can use" or something like that in the Display Properties - Settings - Advanced area (where you check the refresh rate)
