"1280 x 800"

[Guest]

I have a laptop computer with a LCD monitor. The resolution should be
1280x800 but the Control Panel of Windows Vista won't let me choose anything
besides 800x600 or 1024x768.

I think the problem is the VgaSave driver. That driver is so awful. It
can't even find the correct memory size of my graphics card. I have a 64MB
ATI Mobility Radeon 9200. I tried to install the drivers from ATI, but they
don't appear to work with Vista. I know that my graphics card will work well
with Vista, even thought it might not be able to display the Aero Glass
graphics. Everything looks great on my computer except for the terrible
1024x768 resolution. Does anyone know how I can switch back to 1280x800?

Did you try to get Vista beta drivers from the ATI site? Or try to use the
XP drivers? The biggest factor in cards is the WDDM or LDDM ability to make
areo run and most of the newer cards have that ability. If you tried the ATI
beta drivers and they did not install you should talk to them about
installation-some beta drivers work only if installed a certain way.

I went to the ATI site, but they don't have any drivers for the Mobility
Radeon 9200. I also tried the Windows XP driver, but it keeps saying that
the driver could not be installed. Isn't there an easier way to just change
the screen resolution to 1280x800? That's all I really need to do. Other
than the resolution, the graphics card seems to be working fine.
