Bios upgrade for Compaq Presario s4000v Need widescreen

by **brandel3** » Thu Mar 19, 2009 6:18 pm

I have a Compaq Presario S4000v. I have tried all your tips on using my widescreen monitor. My display setting is 1024 by 800 . I need 1490 by 768 i think. I know i have sis651, and ive tried to install updated drivers and bios for motherboard, and nothing, can anyone help me. Compaq says my motherboard is P8656E-ABA S4000V NA210, and also it says K2-GL6E motherboard. Thank you, David

I have the same issue, except I need 1440x900 for a Samsung 940MW. I feel like an idiot for asking you to show me where this downlaod page and patched bios are

I've downloaded the latest adapter driver and bios, but I'm still not getting widescreen resolution options in the screen settings.

Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here's my PC...

Phoenix Award BIOS v.6.00PG
Motherboard K2-GL6E
Sis 651 Rev.2 adapter
