    I think the issue maybe comes from the graphic card itself. It works on xp but not with Vista or Seven... (sorry for my english, i speak french:))

    Have you tried powerstrip? EnTech Taiwan | Utilities | PowerStrip

    I was able to force my 4 year old laptop to output 1900x1080p even though it's max resolution was well below that. :) Might want to give it a try.

    Whats the native resolution of your monitor?
    Is it 1440x900 or 1680x1050?

    Bcoz your mentioning 2 different ratios here.
    My monitor is native 1680x1050 & I don't see 1440x900 listed at all.

    Looks like an EDID problem to me...
    Follow #2 and #3 from here: Force DVI/HDMI resolutions and refresh rates
    Upload the resulting file somewhere so I can take a look.

    What you may need: Male DVI-I to Female VGA adaptor
    What you may have to do:
    Create an override EDID using #4-... from the above linked post.
    Break the highlighted pin from the DVI-VGA adaptor like in this image.
    Connect your monitor using your vga cable plugged into DVI-VGA adaptor that is plugged into DVI port of your graphics card. Update windows driver with your custom driver.
    I can help you with the software part, the hardware part is up to you (getting the adaptor, breaking the pin).

    I have a weird problem. My FX5200 card is capable of dual display. The problem is I can only get one to the proper resolution of 1680x1050. The other will not give me that option instead I have to use an odd setting like 1600x1200.

    Anyone have any idea why its doing this.

    Also I installed the latest driver and Nvidia control panel is not present on my system for some reason.
