360 Resolution?

I've got a question. I recently bought a 24" Monitor with a res of 1920x1200. I use my computer and 360 on the monitor. When I try to run my 360 at 1080 the picture goes off the screen and I have to "scroll" over to see it. When I press the button on my mointor to see the res settings it says its at 1280x1024...

So my question is why cant I use a 1080 res on a monitor that has a native res of 1920x1200?

because your native res is different than what the 360 is trying to output. i had the same problem with my 20 inch syncmater 206w. never did figure out how to get it to display the right information.

Ahh well thanks guys. I'm hoping for that spring update to bring 16:10.SpYdEr124

The Xbox 360 does support 16:10. If you have the VGA cable set it to output 1280x768 (16:10) and you'll be fine as far as aspect ratio is concerned. Your monitor will handled the scaling. The other option is to output 1920x1080 and set your monitor to 1:1 mode, in which case you'll have a little black at the top and bottom, but you won't have any scaling.
