SnowLeapord on DELL XPS 9000-Works great BUT limited VDO Resolution

Hello,

 

As the topic states, after about a week of headaches with gazillion types of boot discs and hard drives incompatibilities, I was finally able to get Snow Leopard 10.6.3 running on my DELL XPS 9000.

 

Its an i7, 8GB ram (Mac shows 4GB??), 1 TB hard drive (Windows 7), 500GB (seperate hard drive for Snow Leapord), BLU-RAY Reader/burner and ATI 5770.

 

Using both Chameleon and NewCOM boot CD's, I am able to boot into Snow and do basically everything with no issues. My issue is that the DISPLAY ONLY shows 1024X768 as the only res choice. Also I do not have a "EXTEND DESKTOP" option to avail both of my monitors. Currently its mirrored.

 

I'm a newb to this so what is the easiest method to resolve this issue?

 

Thanks for the help.
