Im havin a heck of a time getting my resolution displayed correctly. First of all, it only contains 640x480 and 800x600. With a setting of 800x600, it is impossible to use any panels such as the control center, etc, etc..., I have tried changing monitors, clicking on select all. ..as a matter of fact, I select 1024x768 after selecting show all, do the test, runs fine, click yes, go back to control center, same problem, only those two resolutions =[ anyone with ideas??? :(
