Hi guys,
I have a rather old 1440x900 monitor, though I got a pretty good video card (nVidia GTX 560 TI), therefore I need a VGA -> DVI adapter. A couple of weeks ago I accidentally broke my adapter, so I had to get a new one. In the meantime I just borrowed my brother's monitor, which is an HD monitor which I plugged directly into the DVI slot. Today I switched back to my own monitor using a new VGA -> DVI adapter, but the resolution is all messed up. The highest resolution I can select now that looks decent enough is 1200 x 900, even though I'm sure my monitor's native resolution is 1440x900. If I try to set it to 1440x900 manually, it looks ugly and out of position and the display does not reach the actual edges of the screen.
I have no idea why my resolution has changed and I want it back to 1440x900. Before you guys start saying it, yes I did update my video card drivers and it didn't work. Do you guys have any other ideas?
