I recently updated to Windows 11. I have a LG 34 inch ultrawide monitor (21:9 aspect ratio, 2560x1080 resolution). Windows 11 selects the generic Pnp monitor driver, which has a max 1920x1080 resolution, so the screen is fuzzy and stretched out - really unusable. LG does not have an updated driver, Windows 11 has all updates installed has no updates available related to this driver and it will only select this as the recommended resolution.

Is there no support for 2560x1080 HDMI monitors in windows 11?

    I have a Dell XPS that only has USB-C ports. I was using a USB-C Hub with an HDMI adapter on it to connect to the monitor. The hub could only support up to 4k at 30 hz. I bought a new adapter that can support up to 4k at 60 hz and immediately the recommended resolution of 2560x1080 appeared.

    I've tried everything I can think of and have had no success. I would think that Microsoft would monitor their own pages and come up with a solution.

    if LG monitor comes with driver means, install the monitor driver and install the the latest graphics card driver for GPU. download it from intel or and or from motherboard manufacturer site.
