| Grr... computer doesn't obey my chosen scale selection I prefer my video card not scale the image to fill the screen when I select a lower resolution than native, but in games the image is still scaled. Is there somewhere I can manually override this? I select what I want in the Nvidia control panel but it seems to make no difference. |

| Re: Grr... computer doesn't obey my chosen scale selection My brother and I worked out a method for doing this after he got his HannsG HW191D 19” Widescreen LCD. Basically, you set the video card drivers to send a signal at the native resolution of your LCD (in his case 1440x900), but have it only activate the dimension needed by your game (in his case 1024x768, NFS:MW). He posted the method over on the Widescreen gaming forums. See link below. http://www.widescreengamingforum.com...ic.php?t=11474 Hope it helps. Good Luck! BJB

| Re: Grr... computer doesn't obey my chosen scale selection Wow, very elaborate. It's so strange that it used to work fine and then became broken. Thanks, Nvidia. |
