Video Display Resolution
I have a Viewsonic VA1912wb widescreen LCD and in Vista RC2 there isn't an
option to set the monitor the it's native resolution of 1440X900. Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated. I do have the drivers from Viewsonic and Nvidia installed. The best resolution that I am able to use, without any distortion (horizontal or vertical) is 1280X800. -- ASUS A8N-E AMD Athlon 3800+ X2 1Gig Kingston RAM PNY Geforce 6600GT 128MB PCI-e Creative Audigy SE 80G Seagate-160G WD |

At this point nVidia isn't supporting the 1440x900 resolution if connected
via DVI. Some have indicated that when they switch the connection to VGA then they can obtain the resolution. "chancereid" wrote in message ...

I can get the 1440X900 resolution in Win XP x86 and x64 using the DVI and
D-sub cables. The only thing that I can think of is that the beta drivers from Nvidia don't have that capability yet. -- ASUS A8N-E AMD Athlon 3800+ X2 1Gig Kingston RAM PNY Geforce 6600GT 128MB PCI-e Creative SB Live 5.1 80G Seagate-160G WD "HDFatBoy2003" wrote: At this point nVidia isn't supporting the 1440x900 resolution if connected via DVI.

AFAIK neither MS or any of the hardware vendors are supplying abt new
drivers for releases prior to to the RTM release so I think you are out of luck in getting new drivers for RC2 to support your display's native resolution. "chancereid" wrote in message ...

Same problem with Acer AL1916W and RTM.
Solved by using powerstrip -- Jesús Guinda "chancereid" wrote: I have a Viewsonic VA1912wb widescreen LCD and in Vista RC2 there isn't an option to set the monitor the it's native resolution of 1440X900.

If using Nvidia-based video, try the 96.33 driver, not the later ones. Here, it provides the 1440X900 that you seek, using a 19" Samsung panel fed digitally. |
