Default Vista Desktop Too Large for my LCD TV

Yes solved my problem thanks, I got the latest ATI (not NVIDIA) drivers and
was able to set screen size to 1152 x 864, perfect fit, thanks.

My problem is I cannot get the Vista desktop to fit onto my LCD TV
screen,
its just too large for the display area. I can see half of the Start
button
and on any Windows that are made full screen the top right X is not
visible.
I am running latest Vista with all patches up to 1 Aug 06, I have a
Radeon
X300/X550 graphic card also with latest Nvidia drivers (7.7.9.0)
connected
via HDMI to my Panasonic 32" LCD TV.

Why are you using an Nvidia driver for an ATI Radon video card?
