Windows 10: I can't set screen resolution to 2560x1080 on Windows 11 for an LG 29UM57-P ultrawide monitor.

I can't set screen resolution to 2560x1080 on Windows 11 for an LG 29UM57-P ultrawide monitor. I'm setting up a new Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 5 161RU9 - Type 83FW laptop and display properties will not allow beyond 1920 x 1080 resolution. How can I utilize the full 2560 x 1080 resolution that was available for my old ThinkPad? I have updated and installed the correct driver from LG, but it doesn't help.

:)

 

windows 11 with LG ultrawide monitor

I recently updated to Windows 11. I have a LG 34 inch ultrawide monitor (21:9 aspect ratio, 2560x1080 resolution). Windows 11 selects the generic Pnp monitor driver, which has a max 1920x1080 resolution, so the screen is fuzzy and stretched out - really unusable. LG does not have an updated driver, Windows 11 has all updates installed has no updates available related to this driver and it will only select this as the recommended resolution.

Is there no support for 2560x1080 HDMI monitors in windows 11?

Cuz we all live in a retarded world where we can have 2560 x 1080 ultra wide screen in safe mode but not in regular mode!!

But seriously how do I have ultrawide screen only in safe mode but not in regular mode?

How does safe modes generic **** driver provide better support?

is it becuase its stuck in 8 bit color mode?

 

I can't set the resolution to 2560x1080 on my LG 29UM58-P ultrawide monitor

Grapich card: AMD FirePro 2100 Driver version: 25.20.15012.12 Driver date: 2019-01-08
Monitor: LG 29UM58-P ultrawide Driver version: 1.0.0.0 Driver date: 2015-08-26 with DP to HDMI adapter

OS: Win 10

Altough I tried updating all the drivers I can't set the resolution to 2560x1080 because there is no such an option at the display settings.

When I'm trying to update the driver of the monitor by clicking on the Update driver button at the monitor properties it says "The best drivers for your device are already installed". I saw that there is some new drivers at the support page of LG for this
monitor, i've tried them all but when I run setup it does nothing but shows a popup with one line: "Driver installation success". No progress bar no nothing. And when I check again the driver of the monitor at the monitor properties I see that the driver is
still 1.0.0.0. It does not get updated.
It just works fine on Ubuntu, without any settings required...
