MP not detecting correct screen resolution (1 Viewer)

Running MP RC1 on a vista sp1 machine. The machine has a nVidia 6600GT card, and a LCD monitor with native resolution 1600x1200. Graphics are running at the native resolution.

However, when I start the MP configuration app, the "start screen" dropdown lists "Generic monitor (1280x960)..".

Notice that the resolution MP detects in the dropdown list is not correct. This also appears to affect MP when its running. In the following scenario, MP is unable to display the fullscreen tv image on the first try; when returning to the tv guide screen, the right and lower parts are offscreen, like the image has been zoomed in.

- start MP, press shift-F1, shows 1280x960 resolution
- enter tv guide, click a channel
- MP is unable to display channel and drops back to tv guide
- at this point, resolution is displayed as 1600x1200, and the right and lower parts of the tv guide screen are off-screen ("zoomed away")
- clicking channel again now displays it correctly (at 1600x1200)


Oh... and if I press the "windows" key to show startmenu/taskbar, MP crashes. That is also in the log attached to this message.


Anything more I can provide for the devs to look at these two problems?
