Hi, quick questions for anyone that has a similar set up. I have an Acer 22inch LCD and a Nvidia 8800 gts card under Vista. Under scaling there are several options basically asking if you want the driver to handle scaling or the monitor to handle scaling.

Anyone know the best option to pick?

Driver scaling is the best option, although not all drivers allow you to use the ideal aspect-ratio scaling, which enlarges most the image to the edges of your screen without stretching it completely to fit every edge. In that case sometimes your only choice is to use the monitor's scaling, or to go with something else like stretching the image.

I'm one of the lucky ones with Nvidia drivers lately. I can still use aspect-ratio scaling with my 7900GT on the 93.71 drivers, which some people can't.
