I picked up an ASUS GTX 260 from scan on saturday and installed it today, but first off it wouldnt let me choose my native resolution (1440*900) and now i cant select my native resolution in games either. I created a 'custom' resolution in the nVidia control panel as thats the only way i could get 1440*900 but im not being offered itin Crysis or Far Cry 2.
Any suggestions?
sure you have the right drivers?
Yah, the latest ones off nVidias site. How do i go about un-installing drivers? I may uninstall them and re-install and see if that fixes it and maybe a registry clean too.Quote:

Your computer isn't picking up your monitor correctly - this is usually a graphics driver thing, though sometimes monitors come with drivers or profiles which remind Windows. Try restarting Windows a few times with your monitor turned on, or look for a monitor detection button in the nVidia control panel (ATI's CCC has a section for this, I can't remember what nVidia do).Quote:

Still no luck. Re-installed drviers, did driver seep etc. The only plausable reason i think it isnt let me use my native resolution by defualt is that im using the DVI>VGA adaptor and i thinks im using a legacy 4:3 monitor - as it shows a CRT looking monitor in the Nvidia display panel with 'Analog' written on it.
can u use a Screen driver?
Or IIRC u can set a profile with some of the GFX utilities.
