ive a Syncmaster P2470HD with a GTX 470 and when i select 1920 x 1080 (native) the icons are slightly outside the screen and the colour is messed up. The funny thing is when i take the screenshot the icons appear to be ok but when im looking at it they r half outside the end of the screen.

Im using a HDMI lead from card to monitor.

This resolution was fine with my 8800GTS yesterday lol

Ive installed the latest 470 drivers off the nvidia site.

any1 any ideas?:(

its a 24" 1080p monitor. ive just built a new rig with a 470. i had this resolution working fine on my old rig yesterday with a 5year old GPU.

i havent tryed the DVI yet as i want to try and get the HDMI working. I will try a fresh install of the drivers shortly if i cant tweak and fix it.

any other ideas?

oh and when i drop the res to 1440x900 the colour fixes itself and the icons r inside the screen normally. So dunno why its not working when i max the res
 
does the screenshot in my first post look fine to you?

ive switched to 1440x900 and the screenshot is fine looking??? weird

Add: 1280x720 shows the icons outside the screen like 1080 and bad colour like it aswell

i shouldnt have to adjust it, 1920x1080 is the recommended resolution. I think its the nvidia drivers. ive just noticed that my sound doesnt work either with them installed.

my monitor is a Samsung Syncmaster P2470HD 24"
 
yea im dgonna try the 260.89 drivers.

would an update for my BIOS help in any way? i currently have 0505 version for the Asus Sabertooth and theres a 0603 available for download.
