Hardware Configuration Monitor


Select a non standard monitor resolution


If you need a monitor resolution which is not included in the resolution drop-down menu you can create a own ModeLine for this. This setting can be used to fix flickering or a wrong widescreen monitor resolution.

Warning: If you have an older CRT display model selecting a wrong ModeLine could damage the monitor if the refresh rate is set to high. Please be careful and check your owners manual.

This setting is for "1440x900 widescreen"
"1440x900"  88.75  1440 1488 1520 1600  900 903 909 926 +hsync -vsync

This setting is for "1920x1080 widescreen"
"1920x1080" 138.500 1920 1968 2000 2080 1080 1083 1088 1111 +hsync -vsync


To add this line double click on an existing Monitor (or create a new one) and then copy your ModeLine into the ModeLine field and click finish.
