I'm using an Asus VE247T Monitor through DVI, I have it currently set to 1920x1080, which google insists is the native resolution, it is also the recommended resolution in screen settings.

For the most part things look fine, but just to try and test everything was definitely good, I tried to draw a circle using tools in photoshop... and it did not make a circle, it was higher vertically than it should have been.

Not sure what to make of this or how to go about fixing it, I would assume my graphics card is doing something wrong or some setting in Windows 7 is conflicting?

Are you saying it was more egg shaped ?

Do the same thing with Paint, does it look normal ?

Yeah paint does the same thing, if I use the oval tool in that while holding shift, it makes an imperfect circle. A bit more egg shaped yes.

I'm not sure what you mean by checking the monitor adjustments.

He means, set the monitor to factory specs, there is a rest option, use the buttons on the monitor to find it.

If that doesn`t fix it, call the manufacturer.

I would also seriously consider a new NVIDIA card :D

I`m not partial, no not at all :)
