Native Res Gone
It seems that for some random reason my native res of 1440x900 has vanished leaving me only 3 options. I currently can go no higher then 1024x768.
This seemed to happen very randomly. I had gone to take a shower and when I came back my res was at 1024. It took me a second to realized this and I went to put it back thinking a game had changed it. However, the option was not there.
I have an Acer AL1916W (19" wide screen) with a Nvidia 7900GTX running the drivers
