hi all !
in unreal tournament my ultra and gts cards only go up to 1280 by 768 (gts) and 1280 by 1024 (ultra). why is this ?
the drivers are version 6.5 for the ultra and gts cards and the belinea 19" monitors are able to support up to 2048 by 1536... unoffically though !! but they still go up to 1600 by 1200... so why cant i go up to that res in the game ? any ideas ? game version is 4.36 and every other driver needed is up to date... direct x8 installed... im running two tbird oc'ed too min 1.2ghz with 13fsb on kt7a motherboards....
anyway ideas ? shout !!
cheers !

Check your monitor inf file. Windows will only allow the settings in the inf file for your monitor.
Example' my sony monitor will do 1920x1200x32x60hz .But under windows it only does 1280x1024x32x85hz.
My solution was to delete my monitor,and then let it reinstall as the default monitor.Do not load drivers.
You may also have to uncheck"Detect plug and play monitor on startup" in display properties-monitor.
