[QUOTE="Lifeisabeach, post: 561239, member: 38864"] Ah... I'm sorry. I missed that the problem was in Windows rather than in OS X. Had it backwards actually. Well one thing to try is updating the drivers for Windows. Since you have a Macbook, that's a bit tricky since nVidia (assuming that's the card you have) doesn't support the installation of drivers for their mobile series, even though ALL of their cards use the same unified drivers. Linked below is a website that modifies the installer to allow updates for mobile chips... use at your own risk (again... I'm assuming you have an nVidia chip): [url]http://www.laptopvideo2go.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=9243[/url] Getting ahold of the updated nVidia driver there should gain you their control panel for adjusting everything, and you should see the resolution settings you need.
