Vaio E-Series vpcea2s1e not working with 1920x1200 external display

Hi,

According to the Finnish Sony support page, Sony Vaio model vpcea2s1e should support external display resolution up to 1920x1200. However, it seems that this is not the case.

I tried to connect my 24" LCD monitor with native resolution 1920x1200 (16:10) to my Vaio and it doesn't allow me to select anything above 1920x1080. How can I set resolution to 1920x1200?

I'm using HDMI and WIndows 7 64bit. All the software has been updated to their latest versions.

Here's the support page stating the maximum resolution (see "Ulkoisen näytön enimmäistarkkuus"):

This version of Vaio uses ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5145.

Hi doopy_

Take a look here http://www.amd.com/us/products/notebook/graphics/ati-mobility-hd-5145/Pages/hd-5145-specs.aspx

Assuming you are connecting via HDMI, you are limited to 1920x1080 on the HD 5145.

You'd need an HD 5470 to get 1920 x 1200 thru HDMI (used in some of the newer E series).

Regards
