I have aDell U2711 monitor connect to an AMD Radeon HD 6530D Video card but can only get max resolution 0f 1920x1080 not 2560x1400 like the monitor is capable of. I have installed all new drivers and still no good. Please help.

I've edited your thread title since it was unnecessarily long.

Back on topic:
Just before I agree to TechCIDLC and to be sure, Could you please specify system specs? and how you've connected the monitor to your display output?
 


Hi - tech CIDLC ir correct - I will only add that occasionally (it shouldn't, but does) the max res is
only attained through the Display Port.

I am using a dual link DVI cable from one of the video card port to the DVI port on the monitor. I have tried switching the ports connections but it still doesn't work. My system is an HP with i5, 8G of RAM, 1TB of memory. Thank you for everyone's input and help.

According to specs to that cable it will only go to 1920x1200. I'm looking for one that would allows me to have 2560x1400.
