No joy ...Have similar problems with not being able to change to 60hz aswell as stated in the above thread link ...Goes thru the process and then prompts if i wanna keep these settings and click yes but when i check it again its back at 59hz ...
Not really bothered with the 59hz bug as it worked fine on 59hz at 1680x1050 ...All i want is for that resolution to be obtained again ..Old problems months ago is that when ever new updates came out it would actually end up saying no digital signal ..But back to my original and only problems i just want to set my lcd monitor 1680x1050 (native) its a massive problem and there must be answers to it surely ..

this i assume is the digital (DVI) ...
manually install Viewsonic drivers ...
What i notice is that in DVI mode the native is unknown..(maybe where the problem lies)..
(Attempted this with just the drivers that came with Win 7)
Also when i try to install via windows update it fails ...it does have options to update Nvidia and Viewsonic but fails when i try
Also really appreciate the help on this matter its been awesome..

Can you manually install the newest viewsonic drivers? Can you try a different input?
i can manually install Viewsonic drivers which ive done ...Now for input i only have the one card with Vga and Dvi both connected to monitor ...
Vga/analog sees the native resolution without problems ..Its the DVI/digital that wont go past 1280x720 .. im wanting to obtain my native res 1680x1050 on DVI
Decided to sit on this for awhile ..basically ill be waiting for the drivers to come out that fix this ..if it dosent means ill have to get a new card ...Seems to be the norm that Drivers only update for a year or two then ur Forced into upgrade if your using the net ..Cheeky marketing ..But i do aprreciate the response and attempts to solve my problem ..Cant win them all ...nvm ....Thx for the help ....
P.s notice advertising linked to my posts that where put there without my permission ...PLEASE dont do this as i thought this was a legitimate Win 7 forum.. If u need to advertise use banners or something else ...
