2560 x 1080 Windows 10?

[Sammi26]

Hi everyone,

I've just bought a Lenovo desktop and LG Ultrawide monitor, 25 inch product number '25UM58-P'.

At the moment when I run the screen on 1920 x 1080 screen resolution via settings>system>display, the image (1920 x 1080) is stretched across the entire screen, which doesn't look great. When I then add the 2560 x 1080 resolution and hit apply, it seems as if the resolution is correct but squashed into a 1920 x 1080 resolution size, so the screen has black edges at each end and everything looks squashed. I need the 2560 x 1080 resolution but using the full screen!

Can anyone help?!?!

My PC details are below;

Lenovo ThinkCentre M91P SFF Desktop PC (Black) - (Intel Quad Core i5-2400 3.10 GHz, 8 GB RAM, 500 GB HDD, Windows 10 Pro)

Thanks in advance,

Sammi

If you talking about your desktop wallpaper, then its normal if it was designed for 1920 by 1080.

No that's not it. I'm running on 1920 x 1080 and it's stretched over 2560 x 1080. When I then select 2560 x 1080 it's showing it over the 1920 x 1080 screen width and cramped, with the full width of the screen not being used.

Not exactly sure what you mean. Do you mind take a picture of what you mean?

Did you use the included cable provided?
Have you made sure your graphic drivers is up-to-date.

You have integrated graphics but I believe there hasn't been an update for Windows 10 with the i5 2400.
Have you tried restarting the pc?
