    You need to go into nVidia Control Panel and disable the 1:1 mapping option.

    I'm glad to hear that when I play Diablo 2 in Windows 7 on my 1920x1200 monitor I won't have to deal with the nasty stretching. I was concerned that it wouldn't preserve the aspect ratio. Stretched ancient games on a 28" monitor look bad :(.
