I just built a rackmout server with an Intel 865 + Celeron 3.06ghz + 512mb of RAM ($79 on Tiger = hell yeah!) and I have it hooked up to GCS1734 IOGear Extreme 4-port KVMP switch. The switch does support extremely high resolutions, fyi. I currently have the Intel Extreme 2 onboard pulling 8mb of system ram, but I can easily change that up to 16mb.
Anyway, here's the problem. I have a Dell 2005fpw. I do not need to (obviously) play games or anything with my server (which is why I stayed with the integrated graphics rather than putting in a PCI video card), however I would like to run at the full resolution of my monitor. Unfortunately, Windows only gives me the option to go up to 1600x900 (whether I have the GPU drawing 8mb or 16mb). There are no widescreen resolutions to choose from either, but I would like to go up to my native 1680x1050.
I tried installing Powerstrip, but that doesn't give me a 1680x1050 option to add, either. The slider for custom resolutions doesn't have the 1680x1050, even at 256 colours. It does, however, tell me that my monitor is capable of 1680x1050, so I don't understand what's going on... lol. How can I add this resolution manually (either through a registry hack or some other program that can do it for me easily)? I know that this Intel onboard video isn't the greastest thing for gaming, but if it's capable of 1600x1200 on 32-bit colour (according to the manual) then 1680x1050 shouldn't be a problem!
