Normally you will have to restore some settings if you have multiple monitors connected.
I'm aware of that, but despite trying to use the driver's own resolution settings, I could never restore the settings after that last time. Since it didn't want to scale at all to begin with, I initially just had a custom resolution set up that matched the size of the screen. But after that update that screwed me, it would look like it would be set up properly, then when saved end up throwing a good inch outside of the screen on the top and bottom.
Since I've gotten my new card (Old one was also nVidia) I have not done any of the automatic Windows updates for the graphics card that are listed and have been able to use the custom resolution solution as I had before.
I'll try checking to see if the nVidia site has any sort of update listed later, but what gets me is that the driver listed in the windows update list has no other information, so I'd have nothing to compare it to to see if it was the proper item to begin with.
EDIT: I'll double check that "no information" thing as well since the help link always fails due to Firefox being my default browser.
