    Thanks in advance.
    Does the screen resolution control panel show 1440x900? How is the monitor connected to the video card? DVI?

    No, it does not. Both in the control panel and the graphics card controller i do not have my native resolution but other resolutions much higher than it like 1600x1200.
    And also the monitor is connected by VGA. This happened when recently i took out my nVIDIA 9400gt and installed my integrated card back.

    OK, so is the integrated video Intel? If so there's another way around it!

    If you're going to do that just upgrade to Windows 7 and that will fix it along with a simple registry tweak. Why not? I don't think you could find too many people around here that would tell you it was a mistake!

    Honestly it's that or connect the display with DVI or HDMI. I'll even provide a direct download of the latest pre-RTM and help you with drivers. How much RAM do you have? 4GB or more and you'll want 64-bit unless you've got some hardware that you know doesn't work right in Vista 64.

    Is it still installed? The latest drivers on Windows Update for Windows 7 build 7137 enabled widescreen resolutions over VGA for me. If for some reason that doesn't work for you I can force it using this information: Custom Resolutions on Intel Graphics - Intel® Software Network

    To save some time just go here and get what you need. Run as administrator and use one of the "linux modelines" mentioned in the Intel article for 1440x900 @60Hz clever technologies - products - clever freeware - Home to DTDCalculator
