Post subject:  Custom Resolution for Max Payne 2?
Hello, I'm new here, and I apologize if this is the wrong place for this, but I'm trying to find out how to enable my custom resolution (1808x1012) for Max Payne 2.

I have that same question for other games and emulators, but one at a time, I guess. Thanks for the help.

Hi bud.

My three LG 22" Flatron monitors display 5040x1050 at 57Hz (in XP 32 bit). Don't know if this is any good to you?

Using Matrox's own hack or manually added?


I checked the other PC (Dell E248 24") and it displayed 56Hz. My new Acer P223W displays 55hz and my Dell 2208WFPs (22") display 56Hz. Afaik the Dells simply round up the frequency.

So basically no monitor I have access to is showing 57Hz yet they all run 5040 fine.

Just the Matrox update. No manual hacks here.

I press the monitor OSD and it says 1680x1050 at 57hz for each screen...

59.4kHz(sic) 56Hz PN (sic again, probably relates to the TN panel type :?) here with Samsung 2253LWs.

Hi Mattsimis,

Thought I would post a reply thanking you for your help on this. I've been trolling these forums for a long time waiting for a solution to the Vista X64 issues so that I could move from the 177.XX Drivers I have been using.

Last night I installed the new Nvidia 180.48 Drivers and the updated Matrox GXM. I managed to get everything up and running by simply following your instructions. I was still getting the infamous Samsung "Not Optimal Settings" message; up until I changed the custom resolution from 57Hz to 60Hz.

Now this message doesn't pop up anymore and the monitors are reporting that they are running at 59HZ!! I'm pretty sure this is an incorrect report by the monitor.

Thanks again.

I'm actually using the 7680x1600 version on my desktop of that at the moment.

BTW: Google Orton's Process and pick up an action for Photoshop to apply that glow effect to any picture. I think it's a cool FX. It makes real photos look like CG renders.

So does this mean you can fool Windows into 5040x1050 at 60Hz, and the TH2Go is still outputting ~57Hz?
