Setting resolution on external monitor

Hi guys,


I have a new HP Monitor but my Macbook does not show the resolution I need. Can someone help me?


I have a 13inch MacBook Air with OS X El Capitan 10.11.14. Intel HD Graphics 6000 1536 MB

New HP monitor I bought is a HP Elitedisplay E232, ideal resolution is 1920*1080.

Connection via VGE cable with an Beon adapter to connect to Macbook.


The only options the external display shows are 1280 and 800. So while the display works fine, everything is distorted/streched out.

I have tried the HP Helpdesk but they have no clue and not very helpful when it is not all HP 🙂


Many thanks, Jonas
