Widescreen Gaming Forum

Hey guys,

I've recently picked up a widescreen notebook, and eager to get back into PC gaming after years on a console. I'm new to this widescreen stuff, not new to ini/registry changes, hex editing, etc.

Laptop runs a native res of 1280x800, and as such, stretched 1024x768 games look awful. Thankfully a lot of newer games support this res anyway.

My current attempt is The Punisher (I checked - not on your site already, and a forum search has not come up with any results). No ini files to speak of, registry seemed like it would work with the following keys:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareTHQThe Punisher]
"Resolution Width"=dword:00000400
"Resolution Height"=dword:00000300

-- 400 being hex for 1024, 300 being hex for 768.

I changed these to 500/320 to suit my native res, but the game locked up on startup.

Any thoughts on this one? .. or is it one of those tired with no success titles.

Thanks for reading.

Don't know anything about that but welcome to the Widescreen Gaming Forum!
