| 385801 | 2005-09-03 18:22:00 | Whenever i increase my resolution (currently at 1280X1024) I need to adjust my screen using the moniter's option (y'kno stretching and all that) to make it fit my screen properly, but when i go to play a full screen game, part of the screen is always to the side or cut off. Is there a way to change this so i can play full screen games without having part of my screen missing? its very annoying and i dont like haveing 1/10 of my screen being black. BTW im using an ati radeon 9600xt (128mb) |

| 385802 | 2005-09-03 20:25:00 | See what the screen refresh rate is set to . Properties/settings/advanced/monitor/screen refresh rate . On the desktop It'll show black on the main screen, if the refresh rate isnt high enough . Well it does on these . Anything under 85 hz on this, I get the black on both sides / top / bottom of the screen . |

| 385803 | 2005-09-04 08:26:00 | If your using the Catalyst Control Center for your ATi card (cant remember if the control panels have it) - set the 3D refresh rate override under Display Options - your monitor could be defaulting to 60Hz for your games - this is a well known problem with 2000/XP... Also keep in mind that some monitors can only remember so many settings so if your using heaps of different refresh rates and resolutions this can happen. |
