Help with 19inch Widescreen

tnatharik · Post by **tnatharik** » 06 Jun 2007, 03:57

I am using an Acer 19inch Widescreen, with max support of 1440 x 900. I am using Sappire x1600 pro 512. I want to play games with black bars surrounding or at least at the sides. Is there any software to do so?

I am not sure of how to configure the settings. For e.g i am playing company of heroes and i want pillerbox on the sides? How do i do that?

Hey, I have the same monitor, Why do you want to run it pillow boxed, when COH runs wide screen natively.

COH has widescreen function. I was using it as an example. My gfx is x1600 pro 512mb, i already changed the fan once, cause it overheated. Wondering that if i pillarbox it, it wont be running too fast.
