i have an ATI x1300 card and AOC 193FW(1440x900) monitor.

Already installed the latest driver. but the "use centered timing" mode doesn't work!

any one here had the same problem?

On Ati GFX cards there is no way to use black bars on the side through the standard drivers.
You can however use Powerstrip for it. For a tutorial on that look here:

It's about half way down the page, FrankB's post.

Oh, and welcome to the family. :mrgreen:

Well, the use centered timing is for playing with black bars right. :)
It's a known thing that it doesn't work with Ati cards. :wink:
