[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 1302229, member: 24160"] Depending on what you did while in those 3rd party apps, they can keep the resolution you set in the app even after it has been deleted. Do a [URL="http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3964"]SMC reset[/URL], then try it again. Make sure you have gone to the appearance tab and unchecked Mirror displays. Then see what resolutions you have available for the monitor. Make sure you're adjusting the monitor resolution and not the MB. Still not working - this is the 2.26 Ghz unibody late '09 model MB? - I'd recommend giving up analog and go digital anyway, spend the money and get a [URL="http://www.monoprice.com/products/subdepartment.asp?c_id=102&cp_id=10246&cs_id=1024604"]mdp to DVI[/URL] or [URL="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B003OC6LWM/?tag=macforums0e4-20"]mdp to HDMI[/URL] cable - for about $10 or less you've now left analog behind.

Verification
How many occurrences of a n-u-m-b-e-r between "d" and "f" in this example...(sdgs6ngklu3gd#f9%)?
