RE: Acer LCD 19' screwed up
Make sure you have the latest drivers for your graphics card.
Make sure your graphics card can also support that resolution (and the proper refresh rate)
Make sure you have installed the correct display drivers for your screen.

Note that not all drivers are Vista compatible yet.

The drivers are upto date of the video card, vista downloaded them her self....

How to find that out ?? the graphics card supports the resolution or not...
there are no display drivers that came with it.... vista has the LCD as "Generic Non-PNP Monitor" its an LCD!!!

Yeah I'd probably go on the manufacturer's site of the gfx card and download them yourself. Vista likes to download generic drivers for most things.

Yeah. Vista is dodgy. Just try downloading the drivers from the manufactures website and see if that helps.
