Nvidia control panel custom resolution greyed out

broken image

I've been experimenting with nvidia custom resolutions, including a 1920 x 817 rez as shown below in the quoted old post, and it's a very straightforward process. A google search led me to a 7 year old avs post by Chronoptimist (shown below) that touches on what i'm trying to figure out, and i'm hoping someone might be able to help me out.
