After a regular reboot my monitors native resolution (1680x1050) suddenly scrolls in windows (xp sp3). That is I can only see a portion of the desktop and moving the mouse to the edges scrolls it. Previous to that it had worked fine for months. I installed no new drivers or made any other system changes.
The monitors menus show a resolution of 1440x900 even though windows is set to 1680x1050. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling display drivers aswell as monitor drivers, to no effect. Tried some older display drivers, even though the newest version available used to work just fine before, also with no luck.
My video card is ATI Radeon HD4850 and my monitor is a 22" widescreen Acer AL2216W.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
The native resolution for the Acer AL2216W is 1600X1200. It is acting correctly for the resolution you have set it to.

i need to know this too, as i have the same issues
What's the highest resolution that you can set in Windows and NOT have it scroll? Does it look clear at this resolution? or fuzzy? Does your video card see or have any other active desktops or monitors connected to it?
