O my god. You have centered timings working with the Catalyst drivers and a monitor that is not supposed to support scaling.
How the hell did you do that. :shock: :shock:

Well, my guess is that you have to play around with the options in this screenie.
I think if you disable some of the lower options you should be able to adjust the centered timing option so it scales to full screen.

Haha thats brilliant! A complaint post about something everyone's so desperately trying to achieve!!

What Graphics Card do you have and what version of Catalyst are you running?
BTW, i believe if you uncheck "alternative DVI mode" then you can change the timings.

I dunno... i was merely pointing the fact. your primary monitor seems to be connected to your secondary display, i only find this kinda weird...

You can drag your taskbar to the secondary monitor if i'm correct. Did play a long time ago with my geforce 5600fx then, and my tv/crt19'. Ow the good old days :D

Yes, but seeing this pic http://img154.imageshack.us/img154/7069/dibujomr9.jpg , you can see his BenQ widescreen monitor is set to secondary display.....

and if you look at this pic: http://img73.imageshack.us/img73/8228/2102071852vj8.jpg , you can clearly see the widescreen BenQ is used as his primary display... so i tought this was weird. I never tried moving my taskbar to the secondary display, my TV is my secondary display and i sure cant put my taskbar there, unless i make it a clone display of my primary display.

I'm not saying it shouldnt be that way, i'm just saying thats not the way i'm setted up here... and since i never seen a primary monitor being set as a secondary display.... tought i'd just point it out.
