my 700idt came today... thanks mp3car store.

im confused... i read all the stuff about stuff stretching and everything when running 800*600 displays... and there is a quest for 800*480. i made assumptions

im running my desktop @ 800*600. the screen keeps auto adjusting to 800*480. is it not possible to force the display to go to 600? i cant even see the start menu.

im running the via m1000 with the onboard video. im planning on centrafuse with the 800x600 stretched skin. i assumed my bios would be 800*600 and my display setting would be the same. am i confused... or will i never be able to see my full desktop?? i must be missing something obvious.

help

Check your display settings and the frequency it is sending out.

Its under advanced on the Last tab of Display Settings.

I had to set mine at 75 to get it to show at 800x600, works great now :-)

played with the phase... dosent seem to have any effect. i changed the phase by a level of 20 each time. after each change.. i cycled the power.

love being able to see the whole screen... the sync lines are a bit annoying.
