Yesterday I bought a new monitor which can display 2560 * 1440 pixels. The problem now is that I seem to be able to resolve only a maximum of 2048 * 1020 pixels. But I would like to use the full resolution. I connected the screen with my laptop to a docking station.

What can you do now?

Have you ever looked if you have a video driver installed and if, whether this is current?

Maybe this can be your old graphics card only up to 2048 x 1020 resolution. Solution: Buy new graphics card.

Which connection and frequency do you use?

Can the laptop because synonymous WQHD represent?

Googling the name of the GPU and reading specifications…

again: which port do you use? VGA, DVI, HDMI, DisplayPort?
