Problem with selecting default res in 3DMark 06

I can only select 1280x800 in 3Dmark 06,no option at all for the default 1280x1024:confused: Screen is a 24" digimate with a 1920x1200 default res

Can't compare my old scores as they were run @1280x1024

Any idea's

Its because out the box your 8800GT doesnt realise your screen can do 1280x1024. You need to go into the nvidia control panel ---> custom resolutions and using the create custom resolution + advanced settings, make one thats 1280x1024 @ 60hz using DMT timings.
You need to do the same with 1600x1200 as well if you want to use that.

I've had to do the same, and I've told a few other people the same thing recently, so you're not the only one who's had the issue :)
