I want to use 1152x864 resolution for a certain game, but my desktop resolution is 1280x1024. When I change to 1152x864 while playing a game, the image on my CRT monitor (19" Mitsubishi Diamondtron) becomes small, i.e. it does not use the entire viewable area of the screen. I realize that I can adjust my monitor so the image covers the whole screen, but my question is whether my monitor will "remember" its settings in 1280x1024 mode. I don't want to mess with my monitor settings until I know that my settings (geometry, size, etc.) at desktop resolution will be safe.
I believe that my previous video card allowed me to adjust the size and geometry of the image on the monitor via software controls. I briefly looked for such a feature with my current card (GeForce 6800GT 128MB w/ Coolbits registry edit), but I couldn't find one. Is there such a feature with the nVidia driver/Coolbits that allows one to save different geometry, size, etc. settings for each resolution mode? Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.
