Hi,
I have a T30 that shows VGA resolution on startup, during BIOS setup and also after the system has booted. Everything is displayed about twice as big, both on the LCD and on an external Monitor. I tried everything but I couldn't change it.
Could there be something wrong with the graphics chip?
Best regards,
singbad

Not likely.
I would reload the driver and see where it gets you.

Re: T30 Shows VGA Resolution Only
I found out it's the LCD. I tried to replace the original LCD by a Hyundai HT14X14 which probably has this double channel thing.
Can I set the ATI Mobility Radeon 7500 to double-channel mode? I'd have to hack the BIOS, right?

SOLVED: T30 Shows VGA Resolution Only
SOLVED: It's not the LCD, it's the SXGA cable I was using.
