  • But a new laptop or return your monitor and buy one compatible with your current laptop.

  • More than likely your graphics chip cannot support that 2560x1440 resolution. I have a Dell monitor that is 2560x1600 and it needs a card that supports dual link dvi and a special dvi cable to get the max res.

The
Samsung Series 5 (550P7C)
has the graphical card of
GeForce GT 650M
rated for a maximum resolution of 3840 x 2160.



Asking it ti support two screens, one of 1920 x 1080 and the other of 2560 x 1440,
would mean the support of a total screen area of 4480 x 2520.



This very clearly exceeds the capabilities of the graphical card.



I can't see any possible solution, except upgrading the graphical card.
But this being a notebook, it is likely impossible to do.
