Forcing a monitor into 800x480

A few of you may remember awhile back that I was trying to mount a HD in my car for my carputer. Well everything's in now, and the troubleshooting has begun.

The screen that I have installed is the 700TS, from http://xenarc.com/ and the VGA comes from the VIA M10000 http://store.yahoo.com/directron/viaepiam1000.html
The problem is that the native resolution is 800x480 and windows streches 800x600 to fit on it. As one can imagine this gives the desktop a distorted view. I've tried everything I can think of but the closest I can get is 840x480, through the "Show all modes" button. And this is actually worse than 800x600.

Does anyone know of a trick or program that can force it into the correct resolution?
