Hi Rajko,

You know what, I think I solved the mistery, or at least figured out,
what happens it's that I was using the configure desktop option, but
instead I should have used sax2 instead to change the resolution, the
ati config software keeps poping up a window saying that either there is
not driver installed or is not working properly, so I can't use that
piece of software at the moment to configure settings, but seems to be
working with sax2, I haven't tried the max resolution I can get out of
my monitor, but for now, I was able to go to a higher resolution.


Again thanks for all of your help

Cheers!

Jose
