Does the card support higher resolutions?
The Radeon probably should, but it MIGHT be a problem of not recognizing the 
amount of VideoRam availabe, and thus limiting the resolution you get.

BTW.. Tts 1600x1200 as standard. 1600x1280 is a custom size... (As far as i 
recall anyhow.) That might have something to do with it too.

As mentioned in the thread; Check the logs.
