Driver issue? Need help, can't select resolution...

[wasteomind]

I'm baffled by this.

I have an 8800gtx (Evga) and a Dell 24" monitor.

The monitor is capable of 1920x1200, however while gaming I like to use a resolution of 1920x1080 to get a much wider viewing angle.

This is possible in vista x64, and has been for the past few months I've been running vista.

Recently I decided to move to a dual boot setup, and loaded Windows XP SP2.

I have the most recent drivers in both OS's (163.75).

1920x1080 DOES NOT show up as a valid resolution in Windows XP.

I cannot create a custom resolution in XP either, it will fail immediately when I attempt to.

Does anyone know why this is? Or anyway around this?

Thanks.

Bump.

No one can help?

have you tried to install monitor drivers,just a guess

 

[wasteomind]

Of course I did.

Monitor and Video card drivers.

Not that changing the driver version matters, because I tried it and was unsuccessful.
