im going to install xp 32 tonight on dual boot and see if the problem i am having is just a vista 64 issue cause i have run out of options to try.

I wouldn't waste your time, its got nothing to do with the OS..

As far as Mercs2 goes there is an ini file with the resolutions, but when you change the resolution in it and launch the game it reverts the res back down to 640 automatically, even in Read Only.How did you just ...

Nope. Sorry it doesn't work. I just tried, no change.
Works fine here with 1680x1050, but it seems stretched still

I wondered if it did, thanks for the clarification.

I'm sure it comes as no surprise that NBA 08 does not have Widescreen support. It seems like the only EA Sports developement team to add it in are the guys that develope the NFL series.

Anyone here know how to get widescreen working? Specificly 1680x1050?

I have the problem with it cutting off at 1680x1050 on the right side.

Guys come'on now, enough ranting about how EA sucks. We need solutions here...
I don't believe I really have anything to say this year. To read my usual rant about lack of widescreen support, please refer to topics NHL 07 ---> NHL 200 BC
As I said above. I never found a way to get NHL 07 to use ...

Well if no one knows how to run it widescreen what about windowed?

Well I have 07 but I never found a WS fix for it.. so either one would be nice, 08 preferably...

Seems like with all other EA Sports game you can hex edit the exe to get the desired resolution. Try it out if you know how, i do not lol :P

You wouldn't happen to know how I go about that would you? :P

Yep, saw 1680x1050 for me right off the bat.

Yeah I don't get why there isnt any WS support... NFL 08 had it, Tiger Woods 08 had it....
Browsed around the files and it seems like the same old deal with NHL 07, and I never saw a confirmed way of adding WS for 07.
