It seems EQ2 reads the res supported by your monitor. If you use the the slandered plug-n-play one supplied by windows you only get like one or two settings. I my self just changed display (not video) drivers to one of the Sony high end monitors and I was able to pick from a large assortment of resolutions.

Hey thanks man! I'll change my display driver and see if that helps

WOOT, thanks. that did the trick, I can now play at the higher res. My monitor was indeed using the windows default driver

Can you explain how to find the high end Sony monitor drivers and how I can replace mine? I'm having the same problems with limited choices to choose from for my monitor.


Thanks

Right click on your desktop;

Properties->Settings->Advanced->Monitor->Properties->Drivers->Update Drivers-> (Dot install from a list or spacific location)->next-> (Dot Don't search. I will chosse the driver to install)->Next-> (UnCheck Show compatible hardware if checked)

Pick ViewSonic from the list on the left and ViewSonic 21PS from the list on the right. (thats what I used) then press Next->Fineshed->Close->Ok->Ok.

You may or may not have to restart :P
