How do i change my settings to widescreen on PC?

I just bought a new mointor.. its a 19" widescreen HD...

I went in to properties and tried to change the resolution but everything just looks like its streched

how do i fix that?  what settings do I need to be on? 

didnt come with a discas9332

Goto the monitor's manufacturer's website and download the drivers there. The reason why it's not working is because the basic low-level driver doesn't use the unique resolutions.

[QUOTE="doomsdaydave11"]Right click anywhere on the desktop. Then go to properties. In
properties go to the settings tab. There will be a scroller. Scroll
that up to the highest setting. (it should be 1440x900)

use the 1600x900 res. That should be fine.
