Hi, I just bought *Benq V2400W* display and connected it to my pc using
DVI. It's native screen resolution is _1920_x_1200_ px but Vista will
allow me to set only _1600_x_1200_ resolution - anything bigger results
in black jumping screen. I have the latest ATI graphic card drivers
(Sapphire Radeon 2900 Pro 1GB). What should I do?

Thank you for your advice, but unfortunately it did not help because
the refresh rate in ATI Control Panel is already set to 60 Hz (the only
other option is 59 Hz).
I upgraded my drivers to the just released version 8.6 and there seems
to be some improvement - the screen does not jump, it just goes blank
and then it appears and then it goes blank again... and so on. Sometimes
screen's OSD shows: "Nonpreset mode detected".
I thought about going back to Windows XP but it would probably not
help, would it?
