Q: MacBook Air 13" - Trouble w/ HP LA2405WG Monitor
I have 2 Macbook Airs - both 13", both running same OS (El Capitan). For all intents and purposes they are identical.
When I connect my personal Air to my external monitor (HP Compaq LA2405WG) via VGA, I get a perfect resolution on the external monitor.
When I connect my work Air to the same monitor via the same VGA cable, I get a resolution that's pixelated (4x3). I get fewer resolution output options, and they are all 4:3 instead of 16x9 on my personal Air.
Is there any way to correct this? From what I can understand, it has to be a setting, because the laptops are identical, but are providing different resolution options.
Also, when I connect my personal Air, the external display is called "LA2405", and when I connect my work Air, it's simply called "Display". I've scoured the internet for a driver for the monitor, but every website states that there is no such driver for macbooks.
Please help.
