Default Getting 1440*900 screen resolution to work

Windows 98 can display any resolution your monitor and video card can.

Hi All,

I am having a problem getting Win98 to work with my new monitor. It's
an LCD widescreen with a resolution of 1440*900.

My old Kyro-II video card didn't have this resolution, so I went and
bought a new nvidia FX5200 card, but it also doesn't display this
resolution in it's list of options.

People suggest I upgrade to WinXP, but I don't really want the hassles
of upgrading at the moment.

Can Win98 use this resolution, or am I stuck with upgrading to XP?
