52.16 + inf 9.6 - NO black bar! - clue to problem

When I said hardcoded I mean the table is already in the BIOS. And it might be possible to edit the driver to make it think it found a good value...

This is clearly a driver error. Your EDID IS located in the display and it should not fail. Though, it should never have to get a Soft(EDID) value that method also fails -- the drivers think they passed by grabbing some value.

With the 60.72's I can add custom resolutions with advanced timing... I have yet to work this out to see how it does it but these sound promising.

Just out of curiosity what BIOS version are you guys using?

4.17.00.41.C7.

Can it be updated?

Just a tidbit of info here: I was messing around with an Nvidia bios editor last night, just browsing the parameters. There I noticed a checkbox that indicates that Dell has disabled the NV card's bios routine that reads the EDID values from the monitor at boot time. Hmm...

sdw, thanks a lot for your info. Assuming we're using the same tool, the "skip DDC monitor detection" is checked in my bios as well. I also noticed that, at the bottom of the page, Mobile BIOS is "no" (?). What about your value? "yes" or "no"?
