    A quick search on the web shows many have issues with that video card with games and have updatted it with this driver Confirm Download

    Lomai is correct in that you really should fill in your specs, makes it easier to help you with problems.

    Hi Ghuk

    Have you tried using ALT+Enter to go to fullscreen mode?
    You could also have a look at this?

    i tried to download the latest driver for win7 for gma x3100,,but still it's not in fullscreen.. i think the problem is the aspect ration, where in it only shows 4:3

    Hi ghuk

    Have you tried adjusting the aspect ratio:

    Go to the Intel Graphics Media Accelerator Driver properties (either through the system tray icon or through Display Properties, Settings, Advance, Graphics Properties) and go to display settings, aspect ratio options. Change it to full screen .

    Edit

    You may be out of luck unless one of the Guru's here say otherwise
    Have a look at this link
