I can't find any Intel emailadress to ask THEM (they do everything in their powers to keep those a secret), but how do i find the list of 1400x1050 monitors which ARE supported by the Intel 810 chip? What if i debug or hexedit the driver files, would that be aby help or can i hexedit (hexview then, ofcourse) code in the chip ITSELF?

I think there are still hundred of thousands 810 chips out there (it was a rather common chip), so i think it's rather inconsiderate to their customers that Intel doesn't give any 810 support aka. updated 810 drivers.

(Please: only serious answers! Otherwise, my answer has less change of getting a serious answer at all.)

Maybe (not sure) my main question shoud be: is there a list of 1400x1050 monitors which are implemented in the 810 intel CHIP?

Yeah i'm sure my TFT supports 1400x1050, because i've other (newer) PC's running it! On the same monitor. Be it with help of PowerStrip.

The unhide function does NOT help.

As i already stated: Intel doesn't support the 810 and refuses to answer questions about it. This is the answer i get: "Email and telephone support is no longer available for this product." In stead, there's a link to some technical info, without a list of the supported monitors.
If you ask me, it's rude to unsupport thousands of people who still have the 810. Intel just makes a stupid calculation: "the number of people who still have the 810 divided by the number of people who buy a modern 1400x1050 monitor mulitplied by the percentage of people who will complain about it, can't be more than a few thousand world wide"... Thus, completeley disregarding their (former) 'old' customers. Who helped Intel to become/stay the big.

The one caveat on their support page is that it must be a reduced blanking timing. Are you running this on an LCD monitor or on a CRT based one?

You will need a digital based display (LCD DLP or plasma) to be able to run a reduced blanking timing.

The other thing you will need is 1400 by 1050 to be in the plug and play information in the monitor. If it is not there then the 810 will not know that your monitor supports it.

If you are positive that your monitor supports 1400 by 1050 to the VESA reduced blanking timing, then you could always go:
Display Properties > Settings tab > Advanced button > Monitor tab - - - and clear the "Hide modes not supported . . ." tick box.

That should allow you to force any resolution that the video chipset is capable of.

If you want support from Intel, you could try this link:
