Check your graphics card specs, it may not support that resolution. Didn't you get a driver disc with the monitor?

My LG 19" wide was a bit finicky when I set it up. I could only achieve 1440 x 900 with the analogue lead (blue plug). Later after Vista was installed I was able to get that res with the DVI lead (White plug). May not be relavant to your case, but strange. As a footnote, I would deinstall your current graphics drivers, and reinstall the latest version. You may find it solves the issue.
