    Mass Effect 1 Blue boxes are fixed.

    Edit: I can't set my TV image position/size anymore, however. Don't know what that's about.

    Both are fine for me without the service processes running, though.

    I have not been able to play Dirt 2 for at least a month. Sorry for being off to pick, But I am hoping someone can help me out! I have the game through Steam and it would not start. If I click on the shortcut it would start the Steam client but it won't start the game. If I start it from the Steam client nothing happens. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    I will try these drivers once I get home, which is not going to be soon.

    I don't have 260.89 installed anymore to check, but I don't remember seeing this before. If I select the primary monitor it shows the new control panel open, but when I select the second monitor it shows the flat panel scaling options. I still have to shrik the screen size to it's smallest then set fixed-aspect in order for it to work, but it does work.

    I will check FFXIV performance tonight though I may not be able to notice with the CPU bottleneck.

    Why not use Use my display's built-in scaling?

    Works perfect on my 2 screens I have a Acer GD245HQ (DVI), and Samsung UE40B6000 (HDMI).

    Got no borders and everything fit's on all my screens.

    Because alot of displays have pretty poor scaling, obviously is screen dependent, but im my experience, more often than not, its better to have the GPU scale it down.

    Then it must be poor quality screens, even my old one (more then 6
    Years)before this Iiyama Prolite E511S LCD screen had no problems.

    After installing 260.99 (from 258.96) I had my screen blank for a second (idling in World of Warcraft). Checked event log to find:

    nv cpl -> system info -> componenets all up to date, but I did not use any sweeper/cleaner.

    285 GTX stock clocks.

    any ideas?

    Well try a Sweeper then, will be quicker to do that, than wait for an answer.

    I always do it whether i have issues or not, and it may, or may not help, but at least if you do it first, you will know its more than likely a driver, and not something you've done.
