8600 -- no 1280x720?

[CuriousMike]

... my 32" LCD monitor goes to 1280x1024, and does scaling.

I previously had a 7600GS, and it did 1280x720p no problem.

For some reason, the 8600 won't do a "native" 1280x720.

I've googled it a bit, and some people seem have had a similar issue, but other people seem to run in that resolution.

Has anyone come across this problem and found the solution?

What kind of monitor do you have? An LCD TV? If so what is the model?

It's a Phillips ... no brand number... but it supported 1280x720p with the 7600GS.

Literally, I just installed this MSI 8600GT, rebooted, windows found the card, tickled a few things, and bammo... I've lost 720p.

Again, thru Nvidia's control applet, I'm able to manually "add" the resolution, but the monitor kicks to 1280x1024 and scales.

Reinstall your drivers.
