    go get the latest nvidia drivers for Vista from laptopvideo2go (101.41).
    I think the fixed aspect ratio scaling only works with this version in Vista.

    Yeah, not quite as if I suggested going for the 101.41 that finally enable fixed aspect scaling and all.

    Let's keep this conversation on-topic please; if you want to troll about Vista go to the off-topic forum. Thanks.
