Sony :: Vaio Z21 HDMI- 1920x1200
May 12, 2010
I use a Benq 1920x1200 at work and one at home via HDMI-DVI cable. It worked well until the Benq at home died. I got money back from Benq and bought a Dell U2711 and thought that I could get 2560x1440 resolution on my Sony.
I use Win7. But what really makes me is that the highest resulution on the Dell U2711 I can get is 1600x1200!
I can't choose 1920x1200 from the Screen resolution chooser in Win 7.
I can set 1920x1080 in the the Screen resolution chooser in Win 7, but then I get a dark screen on Dell showing text "unsupported resolution".
Powerstrip monitor info says that 1920x1200x60Hz is supported, but not 1920x1080, so the "unsupported resolution" on Dell monitor is correct.
But how do I make is possible to choose 1920x1200 from Win7?
When I try to use Powerstrip to make resolution 1920x1200 I get the error message: "This parameters you have specified may be beyond the capabilities of your monitor or graphics card. Please recheck the resolution, horizontal and vertical refresh rates, and the pixel clock to ensure they are within spec.". But I can't do anything more...
So how do I at least make it possible to use 1920x1200 on the big 2560x1440 screen?

I recently purchased a Vaio VGN-SR390 with HDMI out. However, I'm not getting audio through the HDMI, even with internet content. Is there a setting I've missed somewhere .....

Ive been using a 40 inch HDTV ever since I received my Z about a month ago. I had to move recently, and now when i attempt to use the display it looks very strange, almost as if someone turned the digital vibrance or contrast setting up all the way. The text looks strange, and it is overall unpleasant to look at. I checked all of the settings and everything is the same as before, and tried varying the resolution and color settings. I can't figure it out!
I can take a picture if that would help explain better. I also checked the TV's settings and I do not believe that is the issue.
I also tried reinstalling the NVIDIA drivers from sonys website to no avail.

The problem is i have just plugged my laptop into my 1080p samsung TV it finds it and it displays it on my tv and some ATI program pops up, so the picture isnt the best and doesnt take up the whole TV, so i go to the hdmi settings on my laptop and there are 3 options 720 768 and 1080............ i want 1080 but its shadowed out, i cannot click it it, all i can click is the first option!
why this is so? the max resolution on the laptop is 1377x768 on my laptop........ is that the problem? I would really like the 1080p option, the sound comes through my tele etc and it seems great.... but the pic qual aint great.

my vaio z21wn/b with hybrid graphics (nvidia 9300m en intel gpu) wont allow me to output graphics trough HDMI on a 720p tv. However, when i connect the laptop to a 1080p tv trough HDMI it does work.. strange huh?
i've tried several drivers (Nvidia, sony presentation helper, sony control center) and display resolutions, but i cant manage to get it working..

Put Windows 7 on Vaio 620n. I get audio (through HDMI) but only 2 channel.
In the driver window it says Max number of channels 2/ HDCP not supported.
When I play a channel mapping wav file, everything is mapped to the front of my system.
Im using the Nvidia Vista driver that originally came with the system. Because every other driver I find is useless. Amazing that Sony is so behind as far as Windows 7 driver support.
So I guess my question is:
is anyone in a similar situation having more success than me -and how?

I have a Sony Vaio 17 inch full HDMI laptop using Vista. I have been using a HDMI cable connected to my TV for a few months now all working fine yet today for no apparent reason the sound has started coming through my laptop rather than the TV. I have gone to the control panel and tried switching the default sound to the realtec digital however this did not work and I ended up with no sound at all.I have tried two different players both VLC and Zoom player.

I purchased a Vaio Z last week from SonyStyle (CTO - 6GB RAM, Windows 7 pre-installed, Fresh Start etc).
Everything on the system seems great, but I am having an issue with HDMI output selection thru the Vaio Centre software.

I would like to listen 24bit music from my Vaio to the iBasso D10 portable amp which I'm going to purchase. This has a USB connection which only supports audio up to 16bit 44.1khz, but through the digital inputs (optical or coaxial) it supports 24bit input.
The Vaio FW11S only has an analogue headphone jack, and a HDMI output. Is it possible to get 24bit digital audio from my HDMI output to the digital inputs on the iBasso?
Is there a HDMI > optical or HDMI > coaxial converter/cable/plug/etc. available, and what would be a very good quality one?
how about this? [url]
Will this support playback of 24bit FLAC files through the optical out?

I've found a good deal on a Studio 1737 but the only downside is the 1440x900 screen. If anyone can point to where you can buy the 1920x1200 RGB LED screen it would be much appreciated.

I am currently looking at the Studio 15 as a laptop for college, and I plan on watching DVDs/Blu Ray movies on it.
Does anyone have the 1920x1200 display that can give an opinion on it, cause I would love to have a 1080p capable laptop, but im a bit hesitant .....

HDX16t and I'm having issues deciding between different models.
The difference in the screen resolution would cost me around $100. I would never really use the 1920x1200 for gaming, but it would come in handy while doing homework with multiple windows.
I currently have a DV9500 and a DV5. The DV9500's 1440x900 is excellent for me and I would see no reason to go above that resolution. However, the DV5's 1280x800 is just too small for me (almost even for internet browsing). It just doesn't seem like the 1366x768 would be much different. So for those who have the lower res HDX16t model, would you upgrade to the larger resolution if you had the chance or are you happy with your current setup?

whether the optional WUXGA (1920x1200) display is an LCD or LED? I know the base/standard WXGA (1280x800) is an LCD and the WXGA+ (1440x900) is an LED, which explains why it's a $125 upgrade.

Recently my Inspiron 9300 laptop was stolen and my insurance company accepted my claim but is only offering 1/4 of the price I paid for the laptop in 2006 saying now the market value is 1/4. My laptop was a 17" one with 1920x1200 screen. With that offer I wont be able to buy a 1920x1200 screened laptop I was wondering if this is correct and that the market value could have dropped 1/4 or are 1920x1200 screened laptops still expensive??
Also what would have happend if I had theft cover? Would Dell have replaced the Laptop and if so would they have given me a newer one from the existing Dell range?

Anyone with this WUXGA (1920x1200) LCD, do you notice darker spots on the bottom left and right corners of the screen? Specifically over the Start button and the clock. Make sure there is a lighter screen in the background to notice it more distinctly. This is my second Samsung screen with this issue. Does LG make a WUXGA LCD?
Also, have any of you had the rubber bumpers for the LCD on the palm rest come off. My left one came off and will not stay on. What happens is you tend to run your hand over it while typing, causing it to snap off. In order to get a new rubber piece, DELL needed to send me a whole new palm rest with speakers and fingerprint reader included to install.
So far I like this Notebook, however it should have went through more tests (drivers especially) before releasing it to the public.

Trying to get rid of these questionably useful programs -- but I don't see entries for them in add/remove programs in the control panel (or for any of the other useless VAIO software packages that come on OEM machines sans "fresh start")

I just bought 22" LCD monitor (LG m2294A). It has HDMI in, DVI in, and VGA. I tried connecting my Vaio SR to it with an HDMI cable. Sadly, it didnt work, the monitor displayed a message saying "out of range". In the monitor's user manual I later noticed that HDMI-PC mode is "not supported".
It does however support DVI-PC mode. So my question is, has anyone tried using one of those HDMI-DVI cables to connect their SR's to a DVI monitor? I have read online that going from HDMI to DVI isn't as simple as going from DVI to HDMI. I would really hate to have to connect to the monitor via VGA since I want to get use out of my HDMI out. While I wait for my cable to get here, I would like to read about your experiences in the matter.

The Resolution on the Sony Z is set to HD 1080 and the picture appears, but i just cannot get the whole screen to fit.
I have to change the TV aspect from 16:9 to make it fit

I just got this laptop from BB. I pretty much wiped all the bloatware off of the computer. It's been years since I've seen this much garbage on a new system. This computer ran slower than a five-year-old Dell when I took it out of the box.
Anyways, when I try to stream a video (say, from Hulu) and watch it fullscreen over HDMI to my HDTV -- everything is fine -- until I close the lid, then the video starts stuttering pretty badly. I've changed the performance settings in three places so that closing the lid should have no effect: power management, advanced power management (the tree structure), and the device manager. I'm not sure if it's the processor slowing down or the Wi-Fi - but I've got the settings tuned to performance for both. It seems like when I close the lid, there's still a performance hit going on somewhere.
This laptop sounded like a great deal hardware-wise, but it has some issues... I think the integration with the i5 was rushed; the thing is a massive battery hog even surfing the web, and the amount of power management settings are confusing and conflicting.

I did a clean install of Windows 7 on my Z590 after upgrading the BIOS to R2170M3. Everything works perfectly but I just can't get any sound over HDMI on my TV. Totally ruins the Windows 7 experience...
I have the NVIDIA 187.35 drivers from Sony installed. When I install the previous NVIDIA drivers for Vista (174.49), I immediately get sound over HDMI. Apparently this is an NVIDIA problem.
