Wrong resolution running Vista....

[EQTitan]

I'm currently using a 7800GS on a HannsG JW199D 19" WS but it will not let me choose 1440 x 900 as the highest resolution. The best it does is 1280 x 1024 can anyone help me with this......

thanks

negative, i ran into the same problem. i installed RC2 which comes with bad drivers. now i have to download and install RC1 to get a decent resolution.

the last two driver releases from nvidia neglect the 16:10 aspect ratio. you can drop back to 96.33 to get your resolution back.

i also read somewhere that if you go through VGA instead of DVI it will let you. odd problem. should be fixed soon.

*EDIT*

i did read that there is a program called Powerstrip that will allow you to manually enter resolutions. but it costs $30.

Thanks for the info, after removing the WDDM driver MS kept installing everytime i disabled and removed it i finally got 96.33 install and it's running great thanks. Hopefully nVidia will fix this shortly
