2048x1152 Weird...

Hello all.

I am using a 32'' hdtv with a native res of 1024x768 16:9
I found out the highest version of 16:9 i could use is 2048x1152 w/ gtx 285

After much tweaking in the nvidia control panel with custom resolutions, I achieved this res on my desktop, fallout 3, and crysis all perfectly scaled to fit the screen and it looked breathtaking. had to change some settings in the falloutprefs file to get it at that res but crysis recognized it.

when i first started tweaking my display ld get the resolution i wanted but had to play in windowed mode, or part of the screen chopped off. Then one time I loaded fallout 3, and it was perfectly scaled. When i exited fallout 3, i noticed my desktop was scalled just right also, and crysis loaded up the same way, i was baffled but really happy to have 2048 1152 finaly positioned right.

A day or two later I droped the res back down for Internet explorer, brought it back up for gaming then bam the mysterious "auto" scaling was gone. Ive been troubleshooting the heck out of this and cant get the gaming experience back.

Nvidia control panel has an positioning option were you adjust drawbars to get the hidth and width right, but only allows me the option when I use the hdmiport on my tv rather than dvi. I would do this, but when I do there is significant ghosting and i can only get a refresh rate of 30 @ 2048 1152

Is there a scaling program that can condense high resolutions of the same aspect ratio down to the displays native?

I know its possible because i had it not to long ago, just weird that it reverted back.

any tips or tricks would be kick ass, willing to try anything i like troubleshooting, but always seems i learn the hard way.

Hi, this is bhs13501, was getting erros had to create a new account

yeah its 1024x768 and 2048x1152 can fit on this thing just need to figure out how to scale and move the display around, monitor settings cannot do that.

Somone here has gota know how to scale a large resolution down to fit a display of the same aspect ratio, seems simple really, i dont know why i cant find software for this
