Cannot find 1600x1200 on List all Modes, highest is 1024x768

Hi,
I used to have a resolution of 1600x1200 (32 bit) on Windows Vista (I had
Vista for a long time),
and i unplugged my monitor then plugged it back in,
Then I turned on my computer, and had an ugly 1024x768 resolution.
then, I went to Display settings-->Advanced Settings-->
List all modes, and the highest one on this list was 1024x768. There was no
resolutions higher than 1024x768 on the list... Do you know how I can have a
1600x1200 again...?

Download and install the latest video drivers available for your system.
That should get your resolution back.

It sounds like it didn't properly detect what kind of monitor you have. In
Display Settings do you have a choice of monitors?
