[SOLVED] Can't get desired resolution.

Hello, I have an issue after upgrading the catalyst drivers to 7.12-2, I can't get my desired resolution of 1440x900.

Re: [SOLVED] Can't get desired resolution.

This is a known issue with the new catalyst.  There is no solution at current except to downgrade.
