Just tested system with windows 7.After installation same story only 2 resolutions available 800x600 and 1024x768. Next, installed latest Intel HD 4400 graphics driver, now the native resolution 1920x1080 works perfectly.
Comment 2 gnugcc 2013-12-21 23:54:27 UTC 
Tested with Linux Mint 16 and openSUSE 13.1. Same problem persists.
Comment 3 gnugcc 2013-12-29 05:13:24 UTC 
The problem was fixed by replacing VGA cable with a new one.
