Nvidia Forceware - Scaling Issue

Thanks for the help everyone, the resize option with the international drivers worked for me :)
 
does nothing for me... I still need the 1:1 for lower resolutions...
 
anonuser,
I also use a 37" Westy. I haven't tried any resolution besides 1920x1080 and I haven't seen any blurry text in a long time, if ever, using 32bit Vista. I did find that the nVidia driver doesn't default to 1080p which will cause text to look blurry. I've never had any overscan/underscan problems either.

If need be i'll test 1:1 scaling using BF2.

It always defaulted to 1080p for me. This didn't have anything to do with it. In fact in the bug notes the W37 is listed as having this issue. The International drivers fixed my issue though.

Anytime I run lower resolutions than the stated manufacturer NATIVE resolution, I get sup-par quality. I only ever get true 1:1 pixel mapping with the native resolution, which on the 37" westy is 1920x1080. I run Bioshock, ETQW, and all HL2 games at that one resolution and it runs great. The same was true when I ran a 19" Philips LCD with 1280x1024 native resolution. I always run native for the panel.

Edit: If you run a 16:9 widescreen resolution, you should be able to get 1:1 pixel map at a lower resolution, but you will get a black border. I have not tested this on any recent nvidia driver release however.
 
LCD's aren't like CRT's.

Regardless of Video cards, and drivers, LCD's only look good at native res. No video driver can fix running a LCD at a different res than it's native. Surprises me folks dont get that.

anonuser, glad the international driver was a fix for you. I am definitely finding the 163.44's MORE stable and better in game. I am happy!
