1680x1050x60 on Creator 3D?

A friend has an ultra 10 with a Creator 3D card. He has a 22" lcd
monitor with a native resolution of 1680x1050x60hz. The old creator
doc shows that it supports 1600x1000x66, but that doesn't sync with
the monitor.

He can run at 1280x1024x60, but the aspect ratio is off.

Is there any way to tweak the creator to run at his monitor
resolution?

No, its max is its native resolution of 1680x1050. This is common on
22" monitors.

Of course he did that. That only gets the same info as the original
Creator doc, which leaves only the undesirable 1280x1024 which is 4x3
on a 16x10 monitor.

My real question is there newer Creator firmware or some hack for
running the Creator outside the original spec. Admittedly the Creator
hardware predates the common 22" 16x10 monitors.
