Presentation / Display Scheme with 30" 2560 x 1600 LCD. How?

#1 Post by crashnburn » Mon Jan 04, 2010 10:12 am

Presentation / Display Scheme with 30" 2560 x 1600 LCD. How?

I just started to use my T61 + Adv Mini Dock + (via DVI Passthrough) Gateway XHD 3000 (30" LCD : 2560 x 1600).

I'd like to set up several Display / Presentation schemes on my T61 with the Thinkvantage Utilities.

The issue I ran into when trying to set up one particular scheme for the 30" LCD was that the Thinkvantage utility did not have 2560x1600 and did not allow me to enter it.

Is there a fix around this? Is there a newer version that might support this?

More questions to be added if I can at all do this via Thinkvantage utilities.

If you have the NVIDIA Quadro FX 570M card, it should work.

The display works.

I am just not able to use the Thinkvantage Utility to support that setting: 2560 x 1600.

I just checked: I have 3.03 a and latest version is 4.x something.

I'll download newer and try.
