So long as you have the latest drivers...
I don't know if it goes that low in resolution. I mean it should do, but perhaps it hasn't been very tested with all hardware at that res?
Whatever, you would do yourself a real favour if you got hold of a better monitor. Business is kicking out lorry loads of old monitors, keep an eye out on the second hand market.

Hi Magichero,
Your graphic card drivers are not displaying on that DxDiag. You may need to update them. To see if you require new drivers;
1. Go to http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/windows/Pages/auto_detect.aspx
2. Install ‘AMD Driver Autodetect’ application.
3. Select yes on to allow application to run if prompt appears.
4. Select ‘Download Now’ and follow the steps to install the driver.
5. Restart your computer, if necessary after installation of drivers.
If you have any further problems please refer to the steps in our Troubleshooting Guide (http://forum.team17.co.uk/showthread.php?t=58861) or send your DxDiag to support@team17.com along with a description of your exact problem and our support team will have a look into this.
NOTE: Please remember to tell the support team that you are having issues with Worms Revolution and explain what those issues are, they are receiving a lot of blank emails with only DxDiags attached. They need to know what is wrong to be able to help.
To get your DirectX info:
1. Hold down the Windows Key and press R
2. The Run dialog should appear. Type dxdiag in the available text field.
3. Click OK
4. Click Save All Information
5. Set the Save as type to Text File (*.txt)
6. Save the file DxDiag.txt to your Desktop so it is easy to find.
7. Attach the DXdiag.txt file in an email to support@team17.com
