Please help me with this problem as it's driving me insane. I have just upgraded to vista home premium edition and upgraded my graphics card to a radeon sapphire x1650 pro. When i install the vista drivers for this card (32bit) i can only get the aero features to work at 1024x786 resolution. When i try and adjust resolution to my correct settings (1440x900), the screen goes blank and monitor displays message unsupported input. I can then only get back to normal via system restore. My monitor is a HPw19e widescreen that i have just purchased and am very pleased with. I have a medion pc intel pentium4 2.53 Ghz. 1.5mb Ram and pheonix technologies 6.00 PG motherboard.

Try install ATI's own drivers for this card running Vista.

Two shots in the dark...

1. Upgrade to Vista didn't go very well (subtle speaking).

2. HP w19e LCD native resolution do not extend to wide screen resolution.

I could be wrong thou...
