Video Card is GTS 8800 640
Display Monitor is SamSung 2443BW
I dunno how I can increase native and display to be same
I do not like virtual screen
 
You can...buy a new screen.

The native res is the array of physical pixels present for the display to work with. No amount of tinkering in settings will change this. Generally, you want to run your software at the native resolution of the monitor since this will prevent any stretching and give you the sharpest image possible with your source/display.

Umm. He has a 24" 1920x1200 screen, he just wants it to recognize his actual native res. For some strange reason the computer is seeing less.

I have never had this problem. Even when plugging my first 24" into my my old Radeon 9700pros DVI, it instantly recognized the native 1920...

You could try loading any driver that may have come on disk with the monitor. Update to the latest NV drivers.
 
Ah. You can see why I might be confused and answer the question he actually asked.

I would start by hitting that button that says "change to the native resolution" and see what that does. It sounds promising...

Native Res link is not clickable!
 
The resolution slider and the listed native resolution earlier agree...

Hmm, boot into safe mode and tell us what happens.
 
It can boot into Hadious VGA mode
I can't tell much because only basic driver are loaded in Safe mode
 
Some drivers are messed up. Did the monitor come with drivers? My guess is you installed them, and they are the problem. Try uninstalling them.

Otherwise, you could try cleaning and updating your video card drivers? I doubt that's the problem, but it's worth a shot.

So far I have removed the and reinstall the video card drivers
 
Can you try the monitor on a friends computer, it may have the incorrect firmware and be reporting the incorrect resolution. Still more likely something is wrong on the computer side, but it is a possability.
 
did u buy it locally? is the monitor new or old? You could return it for another just to rule out monitor...
 
I went backword
Connected to VGA connector on Monitor via DVI convertor to VGA
Now it is running at 19200 X1200
Now if I switch back to straigh DVi it Goes back to 1440X900
 
my guess is maybe the firmware got messed up and/or they put the digital output part of it from a 19" lcd...I forget what they call it, but it doesnt sound like drivers if it works over vga. exchange is my suggestion.
