The Nvidia software may have a custom resolution option.

Page 145 here, shows a custom resolution dialog box. Now, support
for your card may have stopped with a certain release of Nvidia
drivers, so I cannot vouch for this being possible with your card.

Another tool, is the shareware Powerstrip, from entechtaiwan.com .
This is the release note, with a list of supported cards.

The Geforce MX440 is mentioned as running 1400x1050 in this thread.
It may take some experimentation to get what you want.
