DVI doesn't work at 1280x1024

Title pretty much says it. I have a 4870 1gig. I have to use a DVI->VGA converter to get any picture on my 19" 1280x1024 monitor. I've seen some mentions of this elsewhere, but no solutions. I heard a rumor that running a second monitor would fix the problem - it almost did. I put in a 20" 1680x1050, and got my 19" working on DVI briefly, until I made the mistake of changing the primary screen from the 20" to the 19".

I'm hoping for a fix with 9.1, but pretty much expecting nothing. Am I SOL here? I'm getting a 22" or a 24" soon to use as a secondary monitor, but I'm not getting rid of my 19", and using it on VGA is driving me up the wall.

I've tried older drivers, no luck there. I don't know what kind of help I expect, but thanks in advance.
 
- try get a driver for your monitor?

- enable unsupported resolution/frequency options in CCC?
 
I've worked with the CCC, and it doesn't appear to have any effect. there's even a checkbox to enable lower frequencies for older digital panels. Doesn't fix it, and in fact doesn't seem to have any effect at all.

I've been fighting with sceptre's monitor drivers and vista, the two don't want to work together, but I'll keep at it.
