17" Laptop support?

The omega drivers don't seem to scale the resolutions in games to fit the screen. Theres the black spaces on the left and right simulating a 15" screen. Is there some work around for this? Thanks!

I get exactly the same thing. I've tried various settings in the ATI tray tools interface. but with no luck.

Okay, I've managed to sort it. Go to Display properties in the control panel. Click the 'settings' tab, click 'advanced'. In the new box, click the displays tab and tick the box that says 'preserve wide aspect' or something like that. Apply and close.

Hope this helps.

Oh, I forgot. Also click on 'panel' in that tab - it should be the one highlighted if you're using a laptop. Tick the box that says 'Expand to full panel size' in the new window that opens. That will work and your games will be widescreen again!
