Windows 10: No 1920x1080 resolution option in Windows 10

Evening!

A couple of hours ago I have installed Windows 10 since I had some problems with Windows 7 and I said why not give Windows 10 a chance. I have installed the Windows on clean but I have some issues with it. Apparently I don't have a Full HD 1920x1080 resolution option, the largest one being 1600x1200.. I've tried installing the GPU drivers manually myself but it hasn't done anything. The GPU model is not that old either.. it's a Sapphire R9 280x Toxic Edition. I'd appreciate some help.

Thanks!

screen resolution

I have a hp laptop with windows 10 installed my screen maximum resolution is 1920x1080 but I cannot set it, and I don't even see an option for that resolution in display settings, but when I connect my pc to an external monitor everything works fine I can
set my pc resolution to 1920x1080.

why is that? please help

I have a monitor that supports HD resolution(1920x1080) and now when I have upgraded to windows 10 the max resolution is 1600x1200.If someone knows how can I change to HD resolution(1920x1080) please help!!!


This is a photo of resolutions I can choose and there is no HD(1920x1080) one!!!

Sorry for a bad english.

 

What shows as your Display Adapter in Device Manager?

Yeah, the R9 280X ought to be supported by the latest drivers from amd.com.

 

AMD Radeon R9 200 series. That's why I am perplexed as I've already read the other similar threads and tried to find a solution there without having to create a new thread.

 

What are your monitor specs?

Does dxdiag (Command Prompt) tell you anything more?
Yes or No to check digital sigs - your choice

 

SB maybe onto it , if Win10 does not have built in Drivers for you Monitor it is likely using the "Generic Monitor" or "Plug and Play Monitor Driver" which I think has a max Res. as you stipulated. (1600x1200)

Look in advance display settings> display adapter settings>Monitor Tab.

 

It says "Generic Non-PnP monitor"
DXDiag says everything's fine.

 

EZES, how about the monitor, are you sure that it supports Full HD resolution?

 

Yes, 100%. I have used Windows 7 in 1920x1080 worked just fine. I've also checked the model online and it's ok. But I had some problems with my mouse and I told to myself that it may be because of the Windows (it wasn't) and I should just reinstall it and I went directly for Windows 10.

 

Use the Monitor Driver from Windows 7/8 (if you have it.) if the Manufacturer doesn't have a Win 10 one online.

It's not really a Driver just a INF file telling windows what resolutions your Monitor is capable of.

You haven't said what Monitor , so I can't point you in the right direction......

 

EZES, what motherboard do you have? Have you checked if there are any specific updates for Windows 10?

 

@Kbird - I use a 21.5" Phillips 223V5 something screen. I have checked on their site if there's any specific drivers for Windows 10 but there were none. I will try install the Windows 7/8 ones and see if it works. @BorisTheAnimal - I have a GIGABYTE GA-970A-DS3P motherboard if I remember correctly and no, I have not checked for any specific drivers for Windows 10 on the manufacturer's site but will do and I will come back with a reply.

 

the Win7&8 drivers are the same ( just looked) , it is really just a text file that adds the max res. for your phillips monitor so windows knows it can use it. the "driver I have for my NEC monitor from Win7 works fine in Win10 BTW.

from the inf file:

[223V5.AddReg]
HKR,"MODES\1920,1080",Mode1,,"30.0-83.0,56.0-76.0,+,+"
HKR,,MaxResolution,,"1920,1080"
HKR,,DPMS,,1
HKR,,ICMProfile,0,"223V5.icm"

not sure if you will need a Reboot or not to see the higher res. offered.

 

Could you send me the link where I can find the driver via PM? You seem to have found the exact driver while I only find for 223v5lsb etc.

EDIT:
[223V5.AddReg]
HKR,"MODES\1920,1080",Mode1,,"30.0-83.0,56.0-76.0,+,+"
HKR,,MaxResolution,,"1920,1080"
HKR,,DPMS,,1
HKR,,ICMProfile,0,"223V5.icm"

do I have to put that certain file in somewhere?
