I downloaded the nVidia Drivers and installed but cannot get it to run in 1024x768 mode and it screws up the screen, i.e pushes it off to the left side. Open Office runs in giagantic mode when use the nVidia Graphics Drivers as well. I will try to switch screens but seems like a monumental pain in the arse to me. Better to have RH fix the problem me thinks.
