This is also posted in the technical forum but I can use all the help I can get!

I have an Nvidia GeForce 7600 GS AGP graphics card and a Dell 30" 300WFP monitor.

The Monitor is capable of 2560 x1600 resloution rate. The Nvidia 7600 is supposedly capable of handeling 2048 x 1536, how-ever the Nvidia software only shows the monitor as being able to support 1280 x 800. If I set the screen resolution any higher than 1280 x 800, the desktop ends beyond the physical borders of the monitor.

I've searched high & low for an Nvidia setting where I can enter a higher resolution rate but can't find one.

I purposely bought this monitor for it's size and high resolution capabilities specifically for SL.

How can I adjust the Nvidia software to meet the monitors higher resolution rates? Or is ther some other setting I'm overlooking?

Thanks in advance!!!
