Thread: General Windows 7 Aspect ratio problem

Hello,

I have used many bdifferent builds of Win7 and nvidia drivers even 190.xx beta, Now I'm using Build 7260. I have Geforce 9800GT VGA and 32" Toshiba LCD Tv.

First of all to use 1:1 pixelmapping to get best quality from my LCD TV you should be set up custom resolution 1360X768. Yes there is'nt any problem, my LCD TV making 1:1 pixelmapping.

The problem is starting, when I start any directxgame with 1360X768 and fullscreen, Win7 can't use this resolution and VGA card changing the aspect ratio. Aspect ratio changing causing the resolution change. So for the resolution changed the TV can't make 1:1 pixelmapping.

I'm using completely same settings and same Geforce drivers in XP, but there is not problem like this.

Nvidia control panel doesn't allow me change aspect ratio settings it's completely grey-out. There isn't any *.inf driver for my LCD TV. (so toshiba is very gut company, but no response any technical questions

please help me, when I use different resolution like 1280x720 the game looks like very bad.

Thank you for any suggestions... and I'm sorry for my poor English

I have tried this driver, still same.

When I change the refresh rate diffrent from 60 I can not do 1:1 pixelmapping.

I think there is a solution for this but the key point is how I change(convert) this *.inf file to my LCD Tv and how I can change the native resolution to 1920X1080 to 1360X768 and their values
