Displayport to VGA adapter - Wrong Aspect Ratio

I have just installed my 5870 and have 3 of the same DGM PVA 24" widescreen (16:10) monitors connected by 2 DVI's and 1 Sapphire DP to VGA adapter. I have installed the 10.7 drivers and the monitor which is connected by VGA is only allowing me to pick 4:3 resolutions (max 1600 x 1200).

Can you help me fix this? Is there a setting I need to select? Under the device manager it says that it is a "Generic Non-PnP Monitor".
 
I have managed to fix this by updating the monitor driver to 'Generic PnP Monitor' and then changing my VGA cable. No idea why the VGA cable change worked, I am just glad that it did an the new cable seems to detect the monitor correctly.

Just don't seem to have the option to config the bezel management, I don't get the option when creating the group. Any idea's? Is it because I'm using a DP > VGA adapter and VGA cant go higher than 1920 x 1200?

Edit: I rebooted and it went back to duplicate screens, created a new eyefinity group and it allowed me to config the bezel management :)
