Game fullscreen problem!

[7DowN]

Hi, first of all, my name is Hugo, and im here to get some help. I Have Windows 7, and to play games in fullscreen have to set to maximum resolution, but my laptop does not have requirements for it, i need to put at least 1024x768 to run the game i play, nice. Because if i set to 1024, it apears black bars in both sides, and i dont like to play like that, so any help is apreciated. My thanks, Hugo.

I supose that yor native res is 1280x800 it is 16:10 aspect ratio...
Try 1024x640 if it's avalaible...

 

[7DowN]

That res its not available

Try 1024x768 or lower but set display to 16:10 aspect ratio...

I used that res in Counter-Strike: Source when i had Win Vista... But when i use that res on Win 7 it apears black bars in both sides..

dell laptop
ati mobility radeon hd 4570
latest ati catalyst driver-application
1366x768 screen
with GTA San Andreus game

1)Go to ATI CATALYST Applicaton:
- Graphics/Desktop & Display/ click triangle button in big Screen Model and press "Properties" option
- now change resolution to lower one.(in my lapy i have changed it from 1366x768 to 1280x720.)
- Save & Exit.
2)now again go to ATI CATALYST Application
- Graphics/Desktop & Display/ this time click on bottom left small Laptop icon's triangle from where u can get to "Configure" option
- now you will find three scaling options:
>Preserve aspect ratio
>full screen
>centered
- u select full screen button
- save & exit.
3)now go to desktop
- click right click of mouse
- go to "Personalize" option

Another solution that worked for me for cs 1.6 is: go to hl.exe (in the steam folder) am right click -> Properties -> Compatibility -> and then check "Disable desktop composition". After that click apply and ok.
Go then to: right click on the steam icon (near clock) and then Library -> right click on Counter Strike -> Properties -> Set launch options and type "-noforcemaccel -noforcemparms -noforcemspd -32bpp -freq 75 -w 800 -h 600" (you can change to -freq 75, 85,100,120 depending on your monitor) -> ok.
Start hl.exe and you will see that the case will get to the 800x600 resolution from the launch options. After that put your monitor (desktop resolution) to 800x600 and play the game.
The only bad part is that you have to change the resolution to 800x600 every time you entered cs 1.6.
If you like to have cs on your widescreen just put in the launch option "-w 1920 -h 1080" or what resolution you are currently using.
That's all. GL
