Making a Custom Resolution in Presentation Director

Does anyone know how to do this? The presentation directer is a great piece of software but I need it to switch my Thinkpad to a resolution that's not supported. 1360x768. I can do it manually with the Windows control panel but I can't make it work with Presentation director.

I have followed the arcticle below which is exactly what I need. But- once I key the resolution into the regeditor when I pull up that profile to edit the resolution is blank. And the drop down box does not contain the resolution I added in.

Anybody know how to fix this?

I'm sorry if I missed something.

But I just did the trick, and when I manually add the resolution in regedit, I can't see the resolution in the drop down box either. But if I activate the scheme, it uses the correct resolution.

Also be aware that you need to be able to select the specific resolution in the normal "windows monitor settings"

If you can't get the right resolution there, and you have an intel chipset graphics. You can use these guides to add the resolutions to your driver.

It can be a little tricky to find the right modeline for the resolution.

so if you need 1360*768 (mirai 32" LCD TV) or 1600*1024 (sony GDM-900 24" CRT) let me know :D
