I bought an Ati 5850 today to go with my new 32" Samsung monitor, however the 5850 WILL NOT go above a resolution of 1280x800.
I am using Windows 7 64x and a HDMI to DVI (dual link) cable, however in both the CCC and in Windows display manager, it shows 1280x800 as being both the max and the recommended resolution.
I know for a fact that the monitor goes to 2560x1600 because i have tested it with my 8800GT, however with the 5850 it will just not work.
I also followed the directions here : http://forums.amd.com/game/messageview.cfm?catid=260&threadid=127150&enterthread=y however when i go to the "Scaling Options tab" the slider is grayed out.
I even went to the HDTV tab and added all of the formats to the display manager... none of them work. If i try to change the resolution to something higher (this even happens with Powerstrip) it just flashes the window once and completely ignores the resolution change.
I have also tried making "custom resolutions" via the registry, but so far nothing works.
