[QUOTE="scoop, post: 56848, member: 10498"] Hi, PowerStrip isn't always working in this situation. Some LCD TV's (like mine) have some stupid configuration in their EDID and thus not allowing the display to be driven by their native resolution. :? Since many display drivers obey what's been told to them by the EDID you just can't work around the "scrolling desktop" issue, unless you can tell the display driver to completely ignore what's been told by the EDID (and risk your display being damaged by wrong resolutions/timing etc.). This issue usually arises when you try to use DVI instead of analog VGA. That's mainly the reason why I use the Omega drivers for my ATi card (instead of ATi's Catalyst drivers). YMMV. EDIT: If you wanna find out if it's the EDID causing this for you, there are some tools available which allow you to read this information from your display. BTW, the PowerStrip forum has much more info on this topic. Kind regards, Michel [/QUOTE]
