Resolution Problem (Incredibly Frustrating)

Greg Pascale · Mar 7, 2006, 09:08 PM

My desktop resolution is set to 1400 by 1050. When I run a game at a smaller resolution such as 1024 by 768, the game runs in a little window. Even at fullscreen, it just shrinks the window and puts black edges around it. If I go to display settings and change the resolution, it just shrinks my desktop. Why is this? Also, in display settings, the only monitor option available is "Two Monitors" yet I am using a laptop. What the hell is up with these drivers?

Hi, welcome to DH!

It really would help to have a lot more information about your system and the drivers you're using.
