I can confirm this issue.
But I´m sure it will be fixed soon.

I hope so...  ;)

i hope so too
but i don't think it will happen anytime soon, judging by the number of views and replies to this topic
nobody cares about CRT monitor users anymore; LCD users will not be affected for obvious reasons and they form the vast majority now

Could be...
For now i am waiting for the final 9.7 ati catalyst (the official one, not the leaked whql) to see if that changes something because imo there's a very slight chance this could be caused by me using leaked beta drivers.
I am somewhat suprised that we have no reply on behalf of someone from the dev team.
Probably we will have to wait for a future furmark vesion to fix this. Or buy a lcd monitor, native resolution to the rescue  :D

Later Edit:
i have installed the final Catalyst 9.7 drivers from AMD's site and the bug is still there

i have tested more cards since, ati, nvidia, on win xp, vista, even windows 7, and it didn't work
can't select a fullscreen resolution higher than desktop's res which doesn't make any sense since i am able to do that in games for example
