With the nvidia driver installed you have to use the nvidia settings tool to change the resolution if it doesn't work with the systemsettings tool.

I have resolution options in screen dialog option in syscenter, but i cant set proper reselution for my laptop.
When booting i can see that there is error while loadin xfermode or something like this. I dont know is that important but i can see only this before screen is blinking.
I put my laptop hardware config. Maybe it can help.
