when I use the internal graphics chip and set the monitor to 1280x1024
resolution, it only displays 1024x768 and the rest is shown via shifting
the mouse pointer.
the monitor has no problems with resolution up to 1600+1280, why are
they not shown "full screen"
help appreciated as there seems no support on the asus homepage for this
board

Have you installed a file for the monitor ?
I got mine from the monitor manufacturer's website.

The .inf for my monitor says:

; Pre-defined AddReg sections
[1280]
HKR,,MaxResolution,,"1280,1024"

Now, I thought the monitor characteristics are communicated
over the DDC serial channel on the VGA cable. But, at least
the monitor file will give you something to test.

For some example files, go to http://www.necdisplay.com/
click "Support", then click "Display Device Drivers (.inf)"
in the left hand column. The downloadable files are tiny
and the INF file can be examined with a text editor if you
want. A color profile is included.

thanx
I have the monitor inf file but it didnt help. I have to change the
setup.ini of the display driver, as the restrictin comes from there. the
display driver always resets to standard monitor which it should not do
