I assume that must be your native res. Is it maybe a larger monitor?

As I stated before, mines a 19". Is yours maybe a twenty?

also, this is technically 16:10 aspect ratio. Perhaps yours is actual 16:9? :)

You should be able to get 1440x900 with that monitor and with DVI.

I dont see why your card wouldnt support that. But it is possible, expecially with updated drivers. Hmmm. I would post in the support forums of your card manufacture and see what those nerds say.
