hey there and thanks for the responses. i'm pretty sure my video card can handle those resolutions in 3d mode. i have a nvidia 7800gs, and an amd64 4000 with 2 gigs of ram. i've painstakingly tested every source engine game carefully following all the troubleshooting methods posted above. i've also tried need for speed most wanted and morrowind's oblivion with resolutions higher then 1600x1200 but have had no luck yet. the only way i can set the desktop to that resolution is be unchecking "hide modes this monitor will not support' in my videocard settings. i'm starting to think it might be related to the default driver for my monitor that windows installs. i'm not sure yet though, still troubleshooting...
I use my 19 inch screen for that resolution, as long as i set the dpi to like 150 or something i can read everything ok. i have a screenshot here somewhere...
