About the resolutions and refresh rates available to users
The resolutions and refresh rates available to the user through Windows are a
comprise of the support from the following elements:
■
The video component of the docking station
■
The primary monitor and the add-on monitor
■
The primary video card on your computer and installed drivers
Therefore, for example, if your add-on monitor doesn’t support a resolution of
1600x1200, then 1600x1200 is not possible though your dokcing station’s video
component supports 1600x1200. This ensures that the monitor cannot be put
into an unsupported mode, which might damage it.
If cloning the primary display, the video component will try to use the preferred
monitor mode. In some cases, this may not be the most appropriate mode for the
cloned desktop. It is recommended that the primary display resolution be changed
to closer match the default resolution of the add-on monitor.
To configure the three components (resolution, color depth and refresh rate) of a
screen mode, follow these steps:
