Default Vista doesn't present 1440x900 Res anymore

I have a Xerox XM7 19" LCD Screen (Wide, 1440x900 Native)
On RC2 and RC1 Vista adjusted itself Automatically to that Res, But not in
RTM!
It only gives me about 1280x1024 (I think). Installing Adapter\Monitor
Drivers didn't help.

I've read about people having this resolution problem in these forum but
strangly, i didn't had this problem until RTM, does anyone knows how to solve
it ?

nVidia chipset based card?

It is a known issue that the latest nVidia drivers do not support this resolution.
You can wait for newer nVidia drivers (I believe that someone posted that they would be available
later this month or so).
There is also a free program on EVGA's web site that will enable you to get this resolution, I
think).
And there is a program called Power Strip, or somesuch, that will enable this resolution.

Same kinda issue with rtm Vista & 96.85 driver

nvidia 7900GT with 2x19" ws monitors - acer 1916ws & samsung940mw

acer runs at 1440x900 np, samsung won't

so its just some monitors that are affected by this bug.
