    Hi Guys, I'd like to use a resolution that is not listed in the modes of the card adapter. How can I do that? Thanks a lot.

    What do you mean? Most of the times the monitor limits the resolutions, not the card itself.

    With the stock drivers that came on my notebook, I only got 4 different resolutions. One of which was actually in the aspect ration for the monitor.

    I changed the drivers though, and that set more available. I haven't encountered any problems with the version I downloaded yet.

    I ended doing it with the Omega drivers. It gave so many more resolutions!
