Unable to increase resolution!

Hello! I just bought a new video card, a nvidia 7300 the resolution must have been increased up to 2048X1536 But the max resolution is 1280X1024.

How i change it to 2048x1536?
Thanks!

When you changed the graphics card, did it change the monitor back to something default?

my 2 cents

I find it impractical to run a monitor at those resolutions unless you are a proffesional in a certain business

You can also usually force it to show all options (even ones that your monitor doesnt support) if you want.
