Hi everyone. I have a Dell 2005FPW display that should display in 1680x1050. The display driver that came with the computer allows the normal 1680x1050 wide aspect resolution but whenever I try to get new nvidia drivers I only get 1600x900 resolution with isn't native.. Can anyone help me with this problem? Thanks 🙁
 
if the nvidia driver doesnt support that resolution, dell has OEM drivers for that monitor:

if you use the non-native 1600x900 resolution the image will either be scaled (bad) or you could try to find a setting that forces the monitor to do 1 to 1 pixel mapping (each pixel of resolution matching up to a screen pixel). the image wouldnt be scaled in that case but you would have black bars on the sides.
