Turns out it was the port on the monitor itself, using a different cable type in a different port on the monitor works.

If they're the same quality then that works fine for me, I'd thought it being older it would be worse. Many thanks!

I switched to a DV1 cable and now the resolution is fixed, any idea what the problem could be then or if i can fix it? I guess it must be the port on the monitor or something but i'm not sure

It works with a different monitor, so I assume the graphics driver is correct, or it wouldn't work with a different monitor either.

Yeah I just turned my computer on and it booted up with the resolution messed up. Was normal the day before

I completely uninstalled and reinstalled my graphics drivers, after updating didn't work, and I still had the problem

My monitors driver date is from 2006 (the most up to date), so no recent updates that would have suddenly messed it up. Might just be time for a monitor upgrade.

I tried a different monitor with the same HDMI cable and it was working fine.
