Gaming and available resolutions -- help!
I have a 15" laptop running a ATI Radeon x1600 MOBILITY. I recently bought a 22" monitor that I hooked up to the laptop, and switched the 22" LCD to be my primary display. I am able to change the windows resolution to 1680x1050, but any game that I play has only the max resolution of 1280x800 showing up, even though my new monitor is capable of 1680x1050. Anyone know how to make this higher resolution show up?

Re: Gaming and available resolutions -- help!
Make sure you set the game "Aspect Ratio" to 6:10 before you change the resolution.
