Have you gone to Nvidia's website, and downloaded the driver for it? I wouldnt trust drivers unless they are straight from the man. website. Where did you download the drivers you have tried?

Ok, so maybe those drivers from CD are just a little buggy and have left some stuff in your OS.

First, uninstall everything that comes from nVidia (since you don't have a nVidia chipset on motherboard you don't have to be affraid to get rid of something you shouldn't). Also uninstall PhysX and stuff like this.

Restart your PC. Then open your C: drive and delete the local folder with drivers (C:\nVidia\ by default), empty the Prefech and Temp in your Windows folder.

Install and run Driver Sweeper. Check the NVIDIA - Display and NVIDIA - PhysiX boxes and press Analyse, and later press Clean. Restart your PC again.

After booting up run Driver Sweeper again just to be sure. Then try to install the latest drivers from nVidia website that suits your card and see what happens.

Hope this will help.
Good luck.

Well Thanks for dis help bro and it has helped me little bit now i'm installed with 191 driver but still screen stretches .. when i go to display setting right now its syn933 master with nvidia 9500 GT but when i move to generic non pnp monitor with nvidia 9500 GT and there are to many resolutions to set and all cause a problem but with syn93 with nvidia 9500 GT only 4-5 are dere and all works

So if i keep this setting will it cause any speed problem?

But a black border on the both side is coming on my screen

Stick with the syn933 + nvidia 9500GT settings. You have only 4-5 resolutions to set because the operating system 'knows' your monitor and let you choose only the compatible resolutions. It won't cause any speed problems.

About the black border - try to set a native resolution for your monitor. If it's 19" widescreen - for Samsung Syncmaster 933 it should be 1360 x 768.

This is your monitor native resolution and you should try to stick with it. Are you still experiencing those black borders?

No, after a fresh system installation just run the driver package. Windows 7 is the right way to go, good luck.

PS. Check if those borders aren't caused by setting on the monitor itself, for example settings like forcing 4:3 display on 16:9 monitors, etc.

It would appear your problem isnt uncommon with that monitor, the advice given to you so far is very good, Samsung UK has a step by step guide to adjusting your distortion (providing you have the correct 933SN driver installed), the file I have attached is the first page of the guide but you can get the full guide here..........
