Perhaps. But have you ~tried~ a lower res? You see, it's not
a matter of what any piece of hardware can handle, it's the
driver being used.
Some coders are either better or more thourough than others, &
there's also the consideration of how the driver installed. I
mean, we're talking about electomagnetic impulses being
transferred (in this case from CD to hard drive) round. A minor
electrical surge from your wall outlet has the potential to alter
or even damage those impulses.
Chances are it's only that the driver is a little less than
stable at 1280x1024. At any rate, it's worth a shot to work
down, progressively to see if the trouble lies there.
