Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
when you first hookup your monitor using DVI port, does automtically go into 1680X1050 or do you have to install the driver first for that to be acheived ? i don't see that resoultion in my ATI 9800pro display properties ...
Yeah, mine ran at 1680X1050 with my pro when I first hooked it up. Try installing the inf file that came with the monitor. The thing that did it for me was that I had my resolution locked using the old monitor instead of letting it query the monitor for the supported resolutions. There's a panel for it in the Catalyst drivers.
