Using Inspiron 7777 AIO as monitor to my new XPS 8960 PC
I have just purchased an XPS 8960 to replace my Inspiron 7777.
I wish to use the Inspiron as a monitor and I able to connect to it ok.
I run both machines at a resolution of 1920x1080.
BUT when I connect the XPS 8960 to the Inspiron the maximum resolution I can get is only 1280x720.
All the drivers are up to date as far as I can tell.
Any suggestions please?

Re: when I connect the XPS 8960 to the Inspiron
are you connecting XPS DP to Inspiron HDMI-in using a DP to HDMI cable?

Yes. Everything shows up as expected, it's just that the resolution is downgraded.
