[SML] video card question

[Jeffrey Kanyuck]

Have you run a diagnostic?
Try changing out the power suppy to test with a different one. You’d be surprised how much of a computer works and other parts that don’t with a bad power supply.

Subject: [SML] video card question

I'm seeing an oddity with my video, before I buy a new card I want to check if I'm missing something.

Windows 7 pro 64 bit
Radeon HD 6450 card using VGA output
Monitor flat panel 1680x1050

Windows has started saying doesn't detect a monitor but the AMD control center identifies it correctly.  If I set the resolution above 1400x1050 I get a distorted screen (scan lines folding back).

I tried reseating the card and made sure the latest driver is loaded.  Their gaming software is installed since they whine and cry if you don't, but it doesn't start up (no games on any of these systems).

I tried the monitor on a Linux system and a Mac and it works at the 1680x1050 with no problem on both of them.

This HAD been working on this Windows system for some time now.

Any thoughts?
